OK I am not sure I got this right so pls tell me if this summary is
correct (note: this does not talk about what guest does with memory, 
ust what it is that device does):

- existing balloon is told lower limit on target size by host and pulls in at least
  target size. Guest can inflate > target size if it likes
  and then it is OK to deflate back to target size but not less.
- your balloon is told upper limit on target size by host and pulls at most
  target size. Guest can deflate down to 0 at any point.

If so I think both approaches make sense and in fact they
can be useful at the same time for the same guest.
In that case, I see two ways how this can be done:

1. two devices: existing ballon + cache balloon
2. add "upper limit" to existing ballon

A single device looks a bit more natural in that we don't
really care in which balloon a page is as long as we
are between lower and upper limit. Right?
>From implementation POV we could have it use
pagecache for pages above lower limit but that
is a separate question about driver design,
I would like to make sure I understand the high
level design first.

Still, e.g. swap in host achieves more or less the same functionality.
I am guessing balloon can work better by getting more cooperation
from guest but aren't there any tests showing this is true in practice?

First, we could add nack easily enough :)
Second, access gets an exit anyway. If you tell
host first you can maybe batch these and actually speed things up.
It remains to be measured but historically we told host
so the onus of proof would be on whoever wants to remove this.

Third, see discussion on ML - we came up with
the idea of locking/unlocking balloon memory
which is useful for an assigned device.
Requires telling host first.

Also knowing how much memory there is in a balloon
would be useful for admin.

There could be other uses.

Assume we want to tell host before use.
Can you implement this on top of your patch?

So you push VM out to swap if it's over allowed memory?
Existing balloon does this better as it is cooperative,
it seems.
