[RFC PATCH 0/3] Helpers for debugging dying cgroups

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

 



This patch series is mostly based on Konstantin's patches which he had sent
years ago [1].

This functionality still seems very useful for debugging the difference
between entities in cgroupfs and counters in /proc/cgroups, e.g.
searching for files that have page cache which prevents destruction of memcg.

I saw the comments in the original thread but didn't understand the Tejun's
comment about usage of filehandle instead of ino. Also I saved the original
output format in debugfs with extra counters. We can rework this format in
the future but now it seems straightforward for just filtering through
cmdline utilities.
