Subject: [PATCH -mm 2/4] oom: select_bad_process: PF_EXITING check should take ->mm into account
Date: Fri, 2 Apr 2010 20:32:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100402183216.GC31723@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100402183057.GA31723@redhat.com>
select_bad_process() checks PF_EXITING to detect the task which
is going to release its memory, but the logic is very wrong.
- a single process P with the dead group leader disables
select_bad_process() completely, it will always return
ERR_PTR() while P can live forever
- if the PF_EXITING task has already released its ->mm
it doesn't make sense to expect it is goiing to free
more memory (except task_struct/etc)
Change the code to ignore the PF_EXITING tasks without ->mm.
