[PATCH respin, was PATCH for review] During VM oom condition, kill all threads in process group

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

 



During VM oom condition, kill all threads in process group.

We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad
state after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory
condition.
Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a
bad state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for
the application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very
obvious that something has gone wrong.

This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather
than just the one thread.
