Too bad, I need Linux >= 4.19 to enable cgroup2 memory.oom_group to
properly kill and restart xserver-nodm with chromium in kiosk mode
displaying videos all the days long. There a bug somewhere in
chromium/ffmpeg/gpu that eat all the available memory, and I don't have
time and money  to dig in that complexity and patch acceptance marathon.
