/* * linux/mm/oom_kill.c * * Copyright (C) 1998,2000 Rik van Riel * Thanks go out to Claus Fischer for some serious inspiration and * for goading me into coding this file... * * The routines in this file are used to kill a process when * we're seriously out of memory. This gets called from __alloc_pages() * in mm/page_alloc.c when we really run out of memory. * * Since we won't call these routines often (on a well-configured * machine) this file will double as a 'coding guide' and a signpost * for newbie kernel hackers. It features several pointers to major * kernel subsystems and hints as to where to find out what things do. */ #include <linux/oom.h> #include <linux/mm.h> #include <linux/err.h> #include <linux/sched.h> #include <linux/swap.h> #include <linux/timex.h> #include <linux/jiffies.h> #include <linux/cpuset.h> #include <linux/module.h> #include <linux/notifier.h> #include <linux/memcontrol.h> #include <linux/security.h> int sysctl_panic_on_oom; int sysctl_oom_kill_allocating_task; int sysctl_oom_dump_tasks; static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(zone_scan_mutex); /* #define DEBUG */ /** * badness - calculate a numeric value for how bad this task has been * @p: task struct of which task we should calculate * @uptime: current uptime in seconds * @mem: target memory controller * * The formula used is relatively simple and documented inline in the * function.
