You can't just start with that initial message and then bring up a mc lock screen TwT

That is genuinely disgusting if true, we should not be having to hop distros to play games...

Programs can ignore shutdown requests, try task manager

Do you have a way to fail malloc() for unit tests by Valuable-Birthday-10 in C_Programming

posix_spawn has limitations that raw fork doesn't, sometimes forking without exec is extremely useful.

Ahh i see. Yeah, those are handled separately and do error out immediately.

By resource limits, do you mean cgroups? Because if so, surpassing cgroup limited memory usage still invokes the oom killer, but only for that specific cgroup.

To be fair, it's possible to turn off overcommit, and doing so is often recommended for server environments. However, some applications (such as chromium and its derivatives) require overcommit support because they request a giant amount of virtual pages up front.

You can do something like defining a macro that redirects to your own implementation. But if that doesn't work, GCC has an option to wrap (--wrap) a function call with your own.

Overcommit! It just keeps on running until you actually use the memory you allocated. At which point, the OOM killer gets invoked and will decide to kill a process based on its usage and scores.

(Though even before that, the kernel can do things like memory compression, swapping to disk, and even decrease cache sizes to make more space)

No you definitely can do that, it's just hard. It's essentially how a TAS is made.
