Based on this idea, I made some modifications based on patch v1. Instead of writing 0 to the member variables of fmeter, we only need to return 0 in fmeter_getrate(). The update logic for fmeter data is kept unchanged, which minimizes the impact on the kernel's current behavior. The whole patch is greatly simplified as follows. Please see if this idea is correct, thanks! diff --git a/kernel/cgroup/cpuset-v1.c b/kernel/cgroup/cpuset-v1.c index 25c1d7b77e2f..14564e91e2b3 100644 --- a/kernel/cgroup/cpuset-v1.c +++ b/kernel/cgroup/cpuset-v1.c @@ -108,7 +108,7 @@ static int fmeter_getrate(struct fmeter *fmp) fmeter_update(fmp); val = fmp->val; spin_unlock(&fmp->lock); - return val; + return cpuset_memory_pressure_enabled ? val : 0; } Jin
