SubjectRe: Out of memory kernel deat
Date
From
I'd propose a fairly simple solution:  send a SIGURG signal to
whatever process has a signal handler for it installed.

This process could then do whatever it wants to, such as allocating
more swap, killing off an errant process or send an E-Mail to
the admin to go out and buy more RAM.

Policy is for userland.

The joy of engineering is to find a straight line on a double
logarithmic diagram.
