2005-07-07[PATCH] mm: quieten OOM killer noiseAnton Blanchard
We now print statistics when invoking the OOM killer, however this information is not rate limited and you can get into situations where the console is continually spammed. For example, when a task is exiting the OOM killer will simply return (waiting for that task to exit and clear up memory). If the VM continually calls back into the OOM killer we get thousands of copies of show_mem() on the console. Use printk_ratelimit() to quieten it.

2005-06-21[PATCH] add OOM debugJanet Morgan
This patch provides more debug info when the system is OOM. It displays memory stats (basically sysrq-m info) from __alloc_pages() when page allocation fails and during OOM kill. Thanks to Dave Jones for coming up with the idea. Signed-off-by: Janet Morgan <janetmor@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16[PATCH] oom-killer disable for iscsi/lvm2/multipath userland critical sectionsAndrea Arcangeli
iscsi/lvm2/multipath needs guaranteed protection from the oom-killer, so make the magical value of -17 in /proc/<pid>/oom_adj defeat the oom-killer altogether. (akpm: we still need to document oom_adj and friends in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt!)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
