Name : earlyoom
Product : Fedora 32
Version : 1.4
Release : 2.fc32
URL : https://github.com/rfjakob/earlyoom
Summary : Early OOM Daemon for Linux
Description :
The oom-killer generally has a bad reputation among Linux users.
This may be part of the reason Linux invokes it only when it has
absolutely no other choice. It will swap out the desktop
environment, drop the whole page cache and empty every buffer
before it will ultimately kill a process. At least that's what
I think what it will do. I have yet to be patient enough to wait
for it, sitting in front of an unresponsive system.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
* Make victim selection logic 50% faster by lazy-loading process attributes
* Log the user id `uid` of killed processes in addition to pid and name *
Color debug log in light grey * Code clean-up * Use block-local variables
where possible * Introduce PATH_LEN to replace several hardcoded buffer
lengths * Expand testsuite (`make test`) * Run `cppcheck` when available *
Add unit-test benchmarks (`make bench`) * Drop root privileges in systemd unit
file `earlyoom.service` ---- Updated to version 1.3.1.
