Subject: memcg: avoid unnecessary system-wide-oom-killer
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a636b327f731143ccc544b966cfd8de6cb6d72c6;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

memcg: avoid unnecessary system-wide-oom-killer

Current mmtom has new oom function as pagefault_out_of_memory().  It's
added for select bad process rathar than killing current.

When memcg hit limit and calls OOM at page_fault, this handler called and
system-wide-oom handling happens.  (means kernel panics if panic_on_oom is
true....)

To avoid overkill, check memcg's recent behavior before starting
system-wide-oom.

And this patch also fixes to guarantee "don't accnout against process with
TIF_MEMDIE".  This is necessary for smooth OOM.
