How is the memory set in android kernel for different platform

[asmaa]

I am downloading android kernel on iMX6Q through Mfgtool. while doing it I got following error.

UTP: sending Success to kernel for command $ mkfs.ext4 -F -E nodiscard -b 4096 -m 0 -O ^flex_bg,^uninit_bg /dev/mmcblk1p`cat /tmp/partIdx`.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Out of memory and no killable processes...

Looking at logs:uuc is invoking oomkiller, dont kniow why?

As I read on the internet following thread:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9199731/understanding-the-linux-oom-killers-logs

it is mentioning its related to memory and to fix the problem they have mentioned 

To fix this problem the behavior of the kernel has to be changed, so it will no longer overcommit the memory for application requests.

 Finally I have included those mentioned values into the /etc/sysctl.conf file, so they get automatically applied on start-up:

vm.overcommit_memory = 2

vm.overcommit_ratio = 80

Can I do something like this in IMX6?

Where are the memory configuration for iMX6 like RAM, L1/L2 Data and Instruction cache defined in source code.

and how can I modify to solve my issue?

Hello,

Can you please tell me the board and Android version that you are using?

Best regards,

Diego.
