[patch 6/8] res_counter: add interface for maximum nofail charge

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

 



For memcg oom reserves, we'll need a resource counter interface that will
not fail when exceeding the memcg limit like res_counter_charge_nofail,
but only to a ceiling.

This patch adds res_counter_charge_nofail_max() that will exceed the
resource counter but only to a maximum defined value.  If it fails to
charge the resource, it returns -ENOMEM.
