>From 0a0358d300330a4ba86e39ea56ed63f1e4519dfd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2011 10:31:16 +0900 Subject: [PATCH 4/5] fix wrong check of noswap with softlimit Hierarchical reclaim doesn't swap out if memsw and resource limits are same (memsw_is_minimum == true) because we would hit mem+swap limit anyway (during hard limit reclaim). If it comes to the solft limit we shouldn't consider memsw_is_minimum at all because it doesn't make much sense. Either the soft limit is bellow the hard limit and then we cannot hit mem+swap limit or the direct reclaim takes a precedence.
