It's just an > address to skip and the name should reflect that? ok fair point. I left it as robust list to be more clean what is being skipped and renamed the head variable to skip_vma so its more verbose. But I dont have that strong of an opinion on it so I'll change it real quick. > >> { >> struct vm_area_struct *vma; >> + unsigned long skip_vma = (unsigned long) robust_list; >> bool ret = true; >> >> /* >> @@ -526,6 +527,20 @@ bool __oom_reap_task_mm(struct mm_struct *mm) >> if (vma->vm_flags & (VM_HUGETLB|VM_PFNMAP)) >> continue; >> >> +#ifdef CONFIG_FUTEX >> + /* >> + * The OOM reaper runs concurrently with do_exit. >> + * The robust_list_head is stored in userspace and is required >> + * by the exit path to recover the robust futex waiters. >> + * Skip the VMA that contains the robust_list to allow for >> + * proper cleanup. >> + */ >> + if (vma->vm_start <= skip_vma && vma->vm_end > skip_vma) { >> + pr_info("oom_reaper: skipping vma, contains robust_list"); >> + continue; >> + } >> +#endif >> + >> /* >> * Only anonymous pages have a good chance to be dropped >> * without additional steps which we cannot afford as we >> @@ -567,6 +582,7 @@ bool __oom_reap_task_mm(struct mm_struct *mm) >> static bool oom_reap_task_mm(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm) >> { >> bool ret = true; >> + void *robust_list; >> >> if (!mmap_read_trylock(mm)) { >> trace_skip_task_reaping(tsk->pid); >> @@ -586,8 +602,11 @@ static bool oom_reap_task_mm(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm) >> >> trace_start_task_reaping(tsk->pid); >> >> +#ifdef CONFIG_FUTEX >> + robust_list = tsk->robust_list; >> +#endif >> /* failed to reap part of the address space.
