Am I missing something here?
Perhaps it is inaccurate to use policy name in this way. For example, some one use BPF_PROG(bpf_oom_evaluate_task, ...) but do not set the policy name through bpf_set_policy_name. In this way, the result is still policy name=default, which ultimately leads to error print in the dump_header.
I think a better way:

+static const char *const policy_select[] = {
+ "OOM_DEFAULT";
+ "BPF_ABORT",
+ "BPF_NEXT",
+ "BPF_SELECT",
+};

struct oom_control {

/* Used to print the constraint info. */
enum oom_constraint constraint;
+
+ /* Used to report the policy select. */
+ int policy_select;
};

static int oom_evaluate_task(struct task_struct *task, void *arg)
{
...

+ switch (bpf_oom_evaluate_task(task, oc)) {
+ case BPF_EVAL_ABORT:
+ oc->policy_select = BPF_EVAL_ABORT;
+ goto abort; /* abort search process */
+ case BPF_EVAL_NEXT:
+ oc->policy_select = BPF_EVAL_NEXT;
+ goto next; /* ignore the task */
+ case BPF_EVAL_SELECT:
+ oc->policy_select = BPF_EVAL_SELECT;
+ goto select; /* select the task */
+ default:
+ break; /* No BPF policy */
+ }

static void dump_header(struct oom_control *oc, struct task_struct *p)
{
- pr_warn("%s invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=%#x(%pGg), order=%d, oom_score_adj=%hd\n",
- current->comm, oc->gfp_mask, &oc->gfp_mask, oc->order,
+ pr_warn("%s invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=%#x(%pGg), order=%d, policy_name=%s, oom_score_adj=%hd\n",
+ current->comm, oc->gfp_mask, &oc->gfp_mask, oc->order, policy_select[oc->policy_select],
current->signal->oom_score_adj);


And all definitions of oc should be added
struct oom_control oc = {
.select = NO_BPF_POLICY,
}

Delete set_oom_policy_name, it makes no sense for users to set policy names. :-)
