I do not think this is a good idea. This can also lead to over reclaim. Why don't you simply stick with the original SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX (aka 1 for try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages)? > + ret = -EBUSY; > + break; > + } > + } while (true); -- 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
