process_mrelease needs to be added in the CONFIG_MMU-dependent block which comes before __task_will_free_mem and task_will_free_mem. Move these functions before this block so that new process_mrelease syscall can use them.

This required moving task_will_free_mem implemented in the first patch - Renamed process_reap to process_mrelease, per majority of votes - Replaced "dying process" with "process which was sent a SIGKILL signal" in the manual page text, per Florian Weimer - Added ERRORS section in the manual page text - Resolved conflicts in syscall numbers caused by the new memfd_secret syscall - Separated boilerplate code wiring-up the new syscall into a separate patch to facilitate the review process mm/oom_kill.c | 150 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- 1 file changed, 75 insertions(+), 75 deletions(-)
TBH, I really dislike this move as it makes git blame a lot harder with any real benefit.
Can't you just use prototypes to avoid the move for now in patch #2? static bool task_will_free_mem(struct task_struct *task); -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
