Allow proactive reclaimers to submit an additional swappiness=<val>
argument to memory.reclaim. This overrides the global or per-memcg
swappiness setting for that reclaim attempt.
For example:
echo "2M swappiness=0" > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory.reclaim
will perform reclaim on the rootcg with a swappiness setting of 0 (no
swap) regardless of the vm.swappiness sysctl setting.

This is a simple interface to trigger memory reclaim in the

This means that the networking layer will not adapt based on
reclaim induced by memory.reclaim.
+ This file also allows the user to specify the swappiness value
+ to be used for the reclaim. For example:
+
+ echo "1G swappiness=60" > memory.reclaim
+
+ The above instructs the kernel to perform the reclaim with
+ a swappiness value of 60. Note that this has the same semantics
+ as the vm.swappiness sysctl - it sets the relative IO cost of
+ reclaiming anon vs file memory but does not allow for reclaiming
+ specific amounts of anon or file memory.
