From 2c5ea53ce46ebb232e0d9a475fdd2b166d2a516b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KOSAKI Motohiro Date: Mon, 9 Aug 2010 17:19:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] oom: oom_kill_process() doesn't select kthread child Presently select_bad_process() has a PF_KTHREAD check, but oom_kill_process doesn't. It mean oom_kill_process() may choose wrong task, especially, when the child are using use_mm().
