From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, memcontrol: implement memory.swap.events Add swap max and fail events so that userland can monitor and respond to running out of swap. I'm not too sure about the fail event. Right now, it's a bit confusing which stats / events are recursive and which aren't and also which ones reflect events which originate from a given cgroup and which targets the cgroup. No idea what the right long term solution is and it could just be that growing them organically is actually the only right thing to do.
