[PATCH 2/9] memcg: add dirty page accounting infrastructure

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

 



From: Greg Thelen <gthelen@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add memcg routines to count dirty, writeback, and unstable_NFS pages.
These routines are not yet used by the kernel to count such pages.  A
later change adds kernel calls to these new routines.

As inode pages are marked dirty, if the dirtied page's cgroup differs
from the inode's cgroup, then mark the inode shared across several
cgroup.

Changelog since v8:
- In v8 this patch was applied after 'memcg: add mem_cgroup_mark_inode_dirty()'.
  In this version (v9), this patch comes first.  The result is that this patch
  does not contain code to mark inode with I_MEMCG_SHARED.  That logic is
  deferred until the later 'memcg: add mem_cgroup_mark_inode_dirty()' patch.

Fengguang: "unstable_nfs" seems a more consistent name?
