While I understand that your usecase might require priorities I do not think this part missing is a reason to nack the cgroup based selection and kill-all parts. This can be done on top. The only important part right now is the current selection semantic - only leaf memcgs vs. size of the hierarchy). I strongly believe that comparing only leaf memcgs is more straightforward and it doesn't lead to unexpected results as mentioned before (kill a small memcg which is a part of the larger sub-hierarchy). I didn't get to read the new version of this series yet and hope to get to it soon. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cgroups" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
