I think maybe one partial possibility is to have a userspace OOM kill manager which decides what is to be killed when OOM is reached and it is activated by the kernel. It would allow a few tasks to be unkillable (syslogd, perhaps, and other important crash-tracers), a few to be killable only when they themselves reach a certain unreasonable size (sendmail, inetd), root processes generally to be killable only when normal-user processes are dead (don't know how this works with capabilities). There could be special kill-procedures for certain processes, etc. | ||||||||||||
