[PATCH 3/3] [PATCH x86_64] during VM oom condition, kill all threads in process group

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When we get into a state where VM has ran out of memory, and it's time to
thwack a process, we should take out the entire process group, rather than 
just one thread.
