The oom killer typically displays the allocation order at the time of oom as a part of its diangostic messages (for global, cpuset, and mempolicy ooms). The memory controller may also pass the charge order to the oom killer so it can emit the same information. This is useful in determining how large the memory allocation is that triggered the oom killer.
