The patch titled Subject: mm, oom: avoid reaping only for mm's with blockable invalidate callbacks has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-oom-avoid-reaping-only-for-mms-with-blockable-invalidate-callbacks.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-oom-avoid-reaping-only-for-mms-with-blockable-invalidate-callbacks.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-oom-avoid-reaping-only-for-mms-with-blockable-invalidate-callbacks.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, oom: avoid reaping only for mm's with blockable invalidate callbacks This uses the new annotation to determine if an mm has mmu notifiers with blockable invalidate range callbacks to avoid oom reaping. Otherwise, the callbacks are used around unmap_page_range().
