Patch series "oom: capture unreclaimable slab info in oom message", v10. Recently we ran into a oom issue, kernel panic due to no killable process. The dmesg shows huge unreclaimable slabs used almost 100% memory, but kdump doesn't capture vmcore due to some reason. So, it may sound better to capture unreclaimable slab info in oom message when kernel panic to aid trouble shooting and cover the corner case. Since kernel already panic, so capturing more information sounds worthy and doesn't bother normal oom killer. With the patchset, tools/vm/slabinfo has a new option, "-U", to show unreclaimable slab only. And, oom will print all non zero (num_objs * size != 0) unreclaimable slabs in oom killer message. This patch (of 3): Add "-U" option to show unreclaimable slabs only. "-U" and "-S" together can tell us what unreclaimable slabs use the most memory to help debug huge unreclaimable slabs issue.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
