I'd prefer not to. For one, this really doesn't have anything to do with
kernel development, and the S/N ratio on that list is already bad enough.
For another, most of the discussion of OOM I remember from when I was sub'ed
to LKML dealt with programs and algorithms to actually fix OOM by killing
processes with extreme prejudice, not warning me that it was going to have to
do that shortly. Searching the archives reinforces this impression. And
lastly, OOM is a perennial flame topic on LKML, and I have no desire to stir
up such a volatile subject.
I can write a small C program to read in /proc/meminfo once a minute and
sound the alarm if it goes below a certain threshold easily enough. I was
just hoping someone had already done it for me.
