From 51b1bd2ace1595b72956224deda349efa880b693 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Rientjes Date: Mon, 9 Aug 2010 17:19:47 -0700 Subject: oom: deprecate oom_adj tunable /proc/pid/oom_adj is now deprecated so that that it may eventually be removed. The target date for removal is August 2012. A warning will be printed to the kernel log if a task attempts to use this interface. Future warning will be suppressed until the kernel is rebooted to prevent spamming the kernel log.
