[PATCH] memcg: Fix memcg_kmem_bypass() for remote memcg charging

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While trying to use remote memcg charging in an out-of-tree kernel module
I found it's not working, because the current thread is a workqueue thread.

No need to queue this for v5.7 as currently no upstream users of this memcg
feature suffer from this bug.
