From: KOSAKI Motohiro Date: Wed, 25 May 2011 00:11:30 +0000 (-0700) Subject: x86,mm: make pagefault killable X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=37b23e0525d393d48a7d59f870b3bc061a30ccdb;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git x86,mm: make pagefault killable When an oom killing occurs, almost all processes are getting stuck at the following two points. 1) __alloc_pages_nodemask 2) __lock_page_or_retry 1) is not very problematic because TIF_MEMDIE leads to an allocation failure and getting out from page allocator. 2) is more problematic. In an OOM situation, zones typically don't have page cache at all and memory starvation might lead to greatly reduced IO performance. When a fork bomb occurs, TIF_MEMDIE tasks don't die quickly, meaning that a fork bomb may create new process quickly rather than the oom-killer killing it. Then, the system may become livelocked. This patch makes the pagefault interruptible by SIGKILL. Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro Reviewed-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki Cc: Minchan Kim Cc: Matthew Wilcox Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: "H.
