unsigned long oom_badness	(	struct task_struct *	p,
		struct mem_cgroup *	memcg,
		const nodemask_t *	nodemask,
		unsigned long	totalpages
	)

oom_badness - heuristic function to determine which candidate task to kill : task struct of which task we should calculate : total present RAM allowed for page allocation

The heuristic for determining which task to kill is made to be as simple and predictable as possible. The goal is to return the highest value for the task consuming the most memory to avoid subsequent oom failures.

		bool	force_kill
	)

out_of_memory - kill the "best" process when we run out of memory : zonelist pointer : memory allocation flags : amount of memory being requested as a power of 2 : nodemask passed to page allocator : true if a task must be killed, even if others are exiting

If we run out of memory, we have the choice between either killing a random task (bad), letting the system crash (worse) OR try to be smart about which process to kill. Note that we don't have to be perfect here, we just have to be good.

test_set_oom_score_adj() - set current's oom_score_adj and return old value : new oom_score_adj value

Sets the oom_score_adj value for current to with proper synchronization and returns the old value. Usually used to temporarily set a value, save the old value in the caller, and then reinstate it later.
