I thought it was merged already in 3.12. There are a few related patches, but here's one: commit 519e52473ebe9db5cdef44670d5a97f1fd53d721 Author: Johannes Weiner <han...@cmpxchg.org> Date: Thu Sep 12 15:13:42 2013 -0700 mm: memcg: enable memcg OOM killer only for user faults System calls and kernel faults (uaccess, gup) can handle an out of memory situation gracefully and just return -ENOMEM. Enable the memcg OOM killer only for user faults, where it's really the only option available.

I don't hesitate, most of the time I simply don't know. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
