Hi Andrea,
I applied your patch and I am checking your code. It is really a very
interesting work. I have a question about the function
__set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) you put in out_of_memory
function. Do not you think it would be better put set_current_state
instead of __set_current_state function? AFAIK the set_current_state
function is more feasible for SMP systems, right?
BR,
Mauricio Lin.
