Subject: [PATCH] mm/oom_kill, proc: replace magic number 1000 with OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 11:36:08 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811033609.3992348-1-ye.liu@linux.dev> (raw)
From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>
In oom_badness() and proc_oom_score(), the oom_score_adj normalization
uses a hardcoded 1000, which is the value of OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX defined
in include/uapi/linux/oom.h. Other code in the kernel (e.g.
fs/proc/base.c oom_adj handling) already uses OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX for
the same purpose.
Replace the magic number with the macro for consistency and
readability. No functional change.
