Hi, Jarkko, It did not. It keeps track of whether memory_failure() work was queued, and makes task_work pending to flush out the queue. But if no work queued for synchronous error due to abnormal branches, it does not do a force kill to current process resulting a hard lockup due to exception loop. It is fine to me to remove the bug fix tag if you insist on removing it. Best Regards, Shuai
