Sorry, I wasn't clear about that -- the failures I meant to be counted
here were only the ones caused by (an ancestor) limit. Maybe there's a
better naem for that.

r
`- c1
   `- c2.max
       `- c3
          `- c4.max
	     `- task t
          `- c5

Assuming c2.max < c4.max, when a task t calls try_charge and it fails
because of c2.max, then the 'max' event is counted to c2 (telling that
the limit is perhaps low) and the 'fail' event is counted to c4 (telling
you where the troubles originated). That is my idea. Although in the
case of short-lived cgroups, you'd likely only get the hierarchically
aggregated 'fail' events from c3 or higher with lower (spatial)
precision.
What would be the type of information useful for your troubleshooting?

Cheers,
Michal
