From fa0cbbf145aabbf29c6f28f8a11935c0b0fd86fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Rientjes Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 17:53:04 -0800 Subject: mm, oom: reintroduce /proc/pid/oom_adj This is mostly a revert of 01dc52ebdf47 ("oom: remove deprecated oom_adj") from Davidlohr Bueso. It reintroduces /proc/pid/oom_adj for backwards compatibility with earlier kernels. It simply scales the value linearly when /proc/pid/oom_score_adj is written. The major difference is that its scheduled removal is no longer included in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt. We do warn users with a single printk, though, to suggest the more powerful and supported /proc/pid/oom_score_adj interface. Reported-by: Artem S.
