/* drivers/misc/lowmemorykiller.c
 *
 * The lowmemorykiller driver lets user-space specify a set of memory thresholds
 * where processes with a range of oom_score_adj values will get killed. Specify
 * the minimum oom_score_adj values in
 * /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj and the number of free pages in
 * /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree. Both files take a comma
 * separated list of numbers in ascending order.
 *
 * For example, write "0,8" to /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj and
 * "1024,4096" to /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree to kill
 * processes with a oom_score_adj value of 8 or higher when the free memory
 * drops below 4096 pages and kill processes with a oom_score_adj value of 0 or
 * higher when the free memory drops below 1024 pages.
 *
 * The driver considers memory used for caches to be free, but if a large
 * percentage of the cached memory is locked this can be very inaccurate
 * and processes may not get killed until the normal oom killer is triggered.
