- * badness - calculate a numeric value for how bad this task has been
+ * oom_badness - heuristic function to determine which candidate task to kill
* @p: task struct of which task we should calculate
- * @uptime: current uptime in seconds
+ * @totalpages: total present RAM allowed for page allocation
*
- * The formula used is relatively simple and documented inline in the
- * function. The main rationale is that we want to select a good task
- * to kill when we run out of memory.
- *
- * Good in this context means that:
- * 1) we lose the minimum amount of work done
- * 2) we recover a large amount of memory
- * 3) we don't kill anything innocent of eating tons of memory
- * 4) we want to kill the minimum amount of processes (one)
- * 5) we try to kill the process the user expects us to kill, this
- * algorithm has been meticulously tuned to meet the principle
- * of least surprise ... (be careful when you change it)
+ * 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.
