Hi all,
Support for oom_score_adj has been added in kernel 2.6.36, a version
newer than 2.6.32-71 which is embedded in RHEL6, so the startup script
contrib/start-scripts/linux would fail because it does not check for
the presence of oom_score_adj before adding the value of OOM_SCORE_ADJ
to it.
We could argue that this is not directly a problem of PG itself as one
could just copy the startup script from the code tree to create its
own service script and fix it, still I am getting the feeling that we
should show a better logic with something like the patch attached.
Thoughts?
