hulk inclusion category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8USBA -------------------------------- If the fallback for memory reliable is enabled, direct reclaim will be used if the task's reliable memory limit is reached and pages need to be released. However, percpu_counter_read_positive() provides a fast but imprecise counter reading. During limit enforcement, this inaccuracy may cause the observed usage to appear significantly larger than the actual value. As a result, even repeated constrained reclaim attempts may fail to bring memory usage below the limit, eventually leading to OOM. To avoid this issue, use an accurate counter check when determining whether the reliable memory limit has been exceeded.
