I don't see why it matters whether the OOM victim exits or not, unless you count the memory consumed by struct task_struct. > According to https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=CrashLog&x=15a1c770400000 , > PID=23767 selected PID=23766 as an OOM victim and the OOM reaper set MMF_OOM_SKIP > before PID=23766 unnecessarily selects PID=23767 as next OOM victim. > At uptime = 366.550949, out_of_memory() should have returned true without selecting > next OOM victim because tsk_is_oom_victim(current) == true. The code works just fine. We have to kill tasks until we a) free enough memory or b) run out of tasks or c) kill current. When one of these outcomes is reached, we allow the charge and return. The only problem here is a warning in the wrong place.
