You're aware of init_mm?
I might mislead you, when I talked about init, I meant the pid 1 process
but not the idle, and isn't the idle a kthread and has not this risk
getting killed by oom?
This panic was observed in a busybox shell with a 2.6.27 kernel, MIPS
board, but after some investigation, I think the upstream also has the
problem, the kernel log is as following:
Out of memory: kill process 938 (crond) score 5 or a child

the best,
thank you
Can you post the kernel log when one of these "extreme cases" happens?
