Subject: [PATCH v1 03/14] mm: introduce bpf_oom_kill_process() bpf kfunc
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2025 10:01:25 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250818170136.209169-4-roman.gushchin@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250818170136.209169-1-roman.gushchin@linux.dev>
Introduce bpf_oom_kill_process() bpf kfunc, which is supposed
to be used by bpf OOM programs. It allows to kill a process
in exactly the same way the OOM killer does: using the OOM reaper,
bumping corresponding memcg and global statistics, respecting
memory.oom.group etc.
On success, it sets om_control's bpf_memory_freed field to true,
enabling the bpf program to bypass the kernel OOM killer.
