Like the current tree? :) Heh, yeah, realized that after writing it but it can be something much simpler. ie. just linked list of children with soft limit configured. > Kidding aside, yes, that would be better, and an unsorted list would probably be enough for the global case. Yeap. > To support target reclaim soft limits later on, we could maybe propagate tags upwards the cgroup tree when a group is in excess so that reclaim can be smarter about which subtrees to test for soft limits and which to skip during the soft limit pass. The no-softlimit-set-anywhere case is then only a single tag test in the root cgroup. > > But starting with the list would be simple enough, delete a bunch of code, come with the same performance improvements etc. Thanks. -- tejun -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
