[PATCH 2/4] memcg: prevent changes to move_charge_at_immigrate during task attach

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

 



Currently, we rely on the cgroup_lock() to prevent changes to
move_charge_at_immigrate during task migration. We can do something
similar to what cpuset is doing, and flip a flag to tell us if task
movement is taking place.

In theory, we could busy loop waiting for that value to return to 0 - it
will eventually. But I am judging that returning EAGAIN is not too much
of a problem, since file writers already should be checking for error
codes anyway.
