So let's do not add new hacks. exit_oom_victim from > oom_kill_process just looks like sand in eyes. Then, please revert "mm, oom: hide mm which is shared with kthread or global init" ( http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1466426628-15074-11-git-send-email-mhocko@xxxxxxxxxx ). I don't like that patch because it is doing pointless find_lock_task_mm() test and is telling a lie because it does not guarantee that we won't hit OOM livelock. Merging patches with a known lie is sand in eyes. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
