Learn how to customize Linux Out-of-Memory (OOM) killer behavior using eBPF technology in this 39-minute conference talk from Kernel Recipes 2025. Explore the evolution of OOM killer development over the past 25+ years and understand why there have been countless debates about optimal memory management policies among kernel engineers. Discover how eBPF finally provides a solution that allows developers to implement their own custom OOM handling policies, potentially ending the long-standing arguments about the "best" approach. Gain insights into the technical challenges of memory management in Linux systems and understand how eBPF's flexibility can be leveraged to create more tailored and effective OOM handling strategies for specific use cases and environments.
