The patch titled Subject: mm, thp: do not cause memcg oom for thp has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-thp-do-not-cause-memcg-oom-for-thp.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, thp: do not cause memcg oom for thp Commit 2516035499b9 ("mm, thp: remove __GFP_NORETRY from khugepaged and madvised allocations") changed the page allocator to no longer detect thp allocations based on __GFP_NORETRY. It did not, however, modify the mem cgroup try_charge() path to avoid oom kill for either khugepaged collapsing or thp faulting. It is never expected to oom kill a process to allocate a hugepage for thp; reclaim is governed by the thp defrag mode and MADV_HUGEPAGE, but allocations (and charging) should fallback instead of oom killing processes.
