[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch titled

     oom: swapoff tasks tweak

has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename is

     oom-swapoff-tasks-tweak.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: oom: swapoff tasks tweak
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>

PF_SWAPOFF processes currently cause select_bad_process to return straight
away.  Instead, give them high priority, so we will kill them first, however
we also first ensure no parallel OOM kills are happening at the same time.
