OOM fixes 1/5

From: Andrea Arcangeli
Date: Fri Jan 21 2005 - 00:50:36 EST


I'm sending 5 patches incremental with each other updated to the latest
bk snapshot I could find on kernel.org [kernel cvs is still unusable for
me, is it my mistake?]

From: garloff@xxxxxxx
Subject: protect-pids

This is protect-pids, a patch to allow the admin to tune the oom killer.
The tweak is inherited between parent and child so it's easy to write a
wrapper for complex apps.

I made used_math a char at the light of later patches. Current patch
breaks alpha, but future patches will fix it.
