From: Nick Piggin Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 06:31:29 +0000 (-0700) Subject: [PATCH] oom: cpuset hint X-Git-Tag: v2.6.19-rc1~1188 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7887a3da753e1ba8244556cc9a2b38c815bfe256;p=pandora-kernel.git [PATCH] oom: cpuset hint cpuset_excl_nodes_overlap does not always indicate that killing a task will not free any memory we for us. For example, we may be asking for an allocation from _anywhere_ in the machine, or the task in question may be pinning memory that is outside its cpuset. Fix this by just causing cpuset_excl_nodes_overlap to reduce the badness rather than disallow it.
