The general idea of limiting total socket buffer memory consumed by a cgroup is a fine idea, but I think it needs to be integrated more closely with the existing kernel memory cgroup tracking efforts, especially if you're trying to use as generic a name as "kmem" for it. I agree with Kamezawa's comments that you need a lot more documentation. Paul -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
