I don't know whether the process will exit finally, bug this stack lasts for hours, which is obviously unnormal. The situation: we use a command calld "cglimit" to fork-and-exec the worker process,and the "cglimit" will set some limitation on the worker with cgroup. for now,we limit the memory,and we also use cpu cgroup,but with no limiation,so when the worker is running, the cgroup directory looks like following: /cgroup/memory/worker : this directory limit the memory /cgroup/cpu/worker :with no limit,but worker process is in. for some reason(some other process we didn't consider), the worker process invoke global oom-killer, not cgroup-oom-killer. then the worker process hangs there. Actually, if we didn't set the worker process into the cpu cgroup, this will never happens.
