Otherwize if there is no left space on shmem device, there will be "Bus error" when application will try to write to address space that was returned by mmap(2) This patch also preserve old behaviour if MAP_NORESERVE/VM_NORESERVE isset. So, with this patch, you will get next: a) $ echo 2 >| /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory .... mmap() = MAP_FAILED; .... b) .... mmap(0, length, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED | MAP_NORESERVE) = !MAP_FAILED; write() killed by SIGBUS .... c) $ echo 0 >| /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory .... mmap() = !MAP_FAILED; write() killed by SIGBUS ....
