Tetsuo has reported: Out of memory: Kill process 443 (oleg's-test) score 855 or sacrifice child Killed process 443 (oleg's-test) total-vm:493248kB, anon-rss:423880kB, file-rss:4kB, shmem-rss:0kB sh invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x24201ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_COLD), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 sh cpuset=/ mems_allowed=0 CPU: 2 PID: 1 Comm: sh Not tainted 4.6.0-rc7+ #51 Hardware name: VMware, Inc. VMware Virtual Platform/440BX Desktop Reference Platform, BIOS 6.00 07/31/2013 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x85/0xc8 dump_header+0x5b/0x394 oom_reaper: reaped process 443 (oleg's-test), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB In other words: __oom_reap_task exit_mm atomic_inc_not_zero tsk->mm = NULL mmput atomic_dec_and_test # > 0 exit_oom_victim # New victim will be # selected <OOM killer invoked> # no TIF_MEMDIE task so we can select a new one unmap_page_range # to release the memory The race exists even without the oom_reaper because anybody who pins the address space and gets preempted might race with exit_mm but oom_reaper made this race more probable. We can address the oom_reaper part by using oom_lock for __oom_reap_task because this would guarantee that a new oom victim will not be selected if the oom reaper might race with the exit path. This doesn't solve the original issue, though, because somebody else still might be pinning mm_users and so __mmput won't be called to release the memory but that is not really realiably solvable because the task will get away from the oom sight as soon as it is unhashed from the task_list and so we cannot guarantee a new victim won't be selected.
