[PATCH 2/2] mm/page_owner: Dump memcg information

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

 



It was found that a number of offlined memcgs were not freed because
they were pinned by some charged pages that were present. Even "echo
1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" wasn't able to free those pages. These
offlined but not freed memcgs tend to increase in number over time with
the side effect that percpu memory consumption as shown in /proc/meminfo
also increases over time.

In order to find out more information about those pages that pin
offlined memcgs, the page_owner feature is extended to dump memory
cgroup information especially whether the cgroup is offlined or not.
