Hello,
I can't repro the problem. The test program gets cleanly oom killed.
Hmm... the workqueue dumps you posted are really weird because there
are multiple work items stalling for really long times but only one
pool is reporting hang and nobody has rescuers active. I don't get
how the system can be in such state.
Just in case, you're testing mainline, right? I've updated your debug
patch slightly so that it doesn't skip seemingly idle pools. Can you
please repro the problem with the patch applied? Thanks.
