From: David Rientjes Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2015 22:48:24 +0000 (-0700) Subject: mm, hugetlb: abort __get_user_pages if current has been oom killed X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v4.1/fixes-rc1~151^2~6 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=02057967b5d3b77ed47f06ee8fe98e2687fdf18b;p=pandora-kernel.git mm, hugetlb: abort __get_user_pages if current has been oom killed If __get_user_pages() is faulting a significant number of hugetlb pages, usually as the result of mmap(MAP_LOCKED), it can potentially allocate a very large amount of memory. If the process has been oom killed, this will cause a lot of memory to potentially deplete memory reserves. In the same way that commit 4779280d1ea4 ("mm: make get_user_pages() interruptible") aborted for pending SIGKILLs when faulting non-hugetlb memory, based on the premise of commit 462e00cc7151 ("oom: stop allocating user memory if TIF_MEMDIE is set"), hugetlb page faults now terminate when the process has been oom killed.
