[PATCH v1 5/6] memcg-v1: no need for memcg locking for MGLRU

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

 



While updating the generation of the folios, MGLRU requires that the
folio's memcg association remains stable. With the charge migration
deprecated, there is no need for MGLRU to acquire locks to keep the
folio and memcg association stable.
