The patch titled Subject: mm: drain memcg stocks on css offlining has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-drain-memcg-stocks-on-css-offlining.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Roman Gushchin <guro@xxxxxx> Subject: mm: drain memcg stocks on css offlining Memcg charge is batched using per-cpu stocks, so an offline memcg can be pinned by a cached charge up to a moment, when a process belonging to some other cgroup will charge some memory on the same cpu. In other words, cached charges can prevent a memory cgroup from being reclaimed for some time, without any clear need. Let's optimize it by explicit draining of all stocks on css offlining. As draining is performed asynchronously, and is skipped if any parallel draining is happening, it's cheap.
