From 06b078fc065fe1fe7097675c8ee416aa2ef94fb3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Weiner Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2014 16:05:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: memcontrol: rearrange charging fast path The charging path currently starts out with OOM condition checks when OOM is the rarest possible case. Rearrange this code to run OOM/task dying checks only after trying the percpu charge and the res_counter charge and bail out before entering reclaim. Attempting a charge does not hurt an (oom-)killed task as much as every charge attempt having to check OOM conditions. Also, only check __GFP_NOFAIL when the charge would actually fail.
