Could you be so kind and try to backport it?

Today i installed kernel with your two patches and i'm running it now. I'm still having problems with OOM which is not able to handle low memory and is not killing processes. Here is some info: >> >> - data from cgroup 1258 while it was under OOM and no processes were killed (so OOM don't stop and cgroup was freezed) >> http://watchdog.sk/lkml/memcg-bug-6.tar.gz >> >> I noticed problem about on 8:39 and waited until 8:57 (nothing happend). Then i killed process 19864 which seems to help and other processes probably ends and cgroup started to work. But problem accoured again about 20 seconds later, so i killed all processes at 8:58. The problem is occuring all the time since then. All processes (in that cgroup) are always in state 'D' when it occurs. >> >> >> - kernel log from boot until now >> http://watchdog.sk/lkml/kern3.gz >> >> >> Btw, something probably happened also at about 3:09 but i wasn't able to gather any data because my 'load check script' killed all apache processes (load was more than 100). >> >> >> >> azur >> -- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cgroups" in >> the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > >-- >Michal Hocko >SUSE Labs > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
