[PATCH 4/4] oom-reaper: use madvise_dontneed() instead of unmap_page_range()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Logic on whether we can reap pages from the VMA should match what we
have in madvise_dontneed(). In particular, we should skip, VM_PFNMAP
VMAs, but we don't now.

Let's just call madvise_dontneed() from __oom_reap_task_mm(), so we
won't need to sync the logic in the future.
