Thanks.
I found the below patch lying around but I didn't queue it properly.
Is it legit?
From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: oom-clear-tif_memdie-after-oom_reaper-managed-to-unmap-the-address-space-fix
When the OOM killer scans tasks and encounters a PF_EXITING one, it
force-selects that one regardless of the score. Is there a possibility
that the task might hang after it has set PF_EXITING? In that case the
OOM killer should be able to move on to the next task.
Frankly, I don't even know why we check for exiting tasks in the OOM
killer. We've tried direct reclaim at least 15 times by the time we
decide the system is OOM, there was plenty of time to exit and free
memory; and a task might exit voluntarily right after we issue a kill.
This is testing pure noise.
