Subject: [PATCH 6/6] mm,oom: wait for OOM victims when using oom_kill_allocating_task == 1
Currently, out_of_memory() does not wait for existing TIF_MEMDIE threads
if /proc/sys/vm/oom_kill_allocating_task is set to 1. This can result in
killing more OOM victims than needed. We can wait for the OOM reaper to
reap memory used by existing TIF_MEMDIE threads if possible. If the OOM
reaper is not available, the system will be kept OOM stalled until an
OOM-unkillable thread does a GFP_FS allocation request and calls
oom_kill_allocating_task == 0 path.
This patch changes oom_kill_allocating_task == 1 case to call
select_bad_process() in order to wait for existing TIF_MEMDIE threads.
Since "mm,oom: exclude TIF_MEMDIE processes from candidates.",
"mm,oom: don't abort on exiting processes when selecting a victim.",
"mm,oom: exclude oom_task_origin processes if they are OOM victims.",
"mm,oom: exclude oom_task_origin processes if they are OOM-unkillable."
and "mm,oom: Re-enable OOM killer using timers." made sure that we never
wait for TIF_MEMDIE threads forever, waiting for TIF_MEMDIE threads for
oom_kill_allocating_task == 1 does not cause OOM livelock problem.
After this patch, we can safely merge the OOM reaper in the simplest
form, without worrying about corner cases.
