memcg: oom kill disable and oom status
This adds a feature to disable oom-killer for memcg, if disabled, of course, tasks under memcg will stop. But now, we have oom-notifier for memcg. And the world around memcg is not under out-of-memory. memcg's out-of-memory just shows memcg hits limit. Then, administrator or management daemon can recover the situation by - kill some process - enlarge limit, add more swap. - migrate some tasks - remove file cache on tmps (difficult ?) Unlike oom-killer, you can take enough information before killing tasks. (by gcore, or, ps etc.) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Cc: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
