[PATCH v1 0/7] mm/memcontrol: recharge mlocked pages

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

 



Currently mlock keeps pages in cgroups where they were accounted.
This way one container could affect another if they share file cache.
Typical case is writing (downloading) file in one container and then
locking in another. After that first container cannot get rid of cache.
Also removed cgroup stays pinned by these mlocked pages.

This patchset implements recharging pages to cgroup of mlock user.

There are three cases:
* recharging at first mlock
* recharging at munlock to any remaining mlock
* recharging at 'culling' in reclaimer to any existing mlock

To keep things simple recharging ignores memory limit. After that memory
usage temporary could be higher than limit but cgroup will reclaim memory
later or trigger oom, which is valid outcome when somebody mlock too much.
