[patch 074/155] mm, memcg: prevent memory.high load/store tearing

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

 



From: Chris Down <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm, memcg: prevent memory.high load/store tearing

A mem_cgroup's high attribute can be concurrently set at the same time as
we are trying to read it -- for example, if we are in memory_high_write at
the same time as we are trying to do high reclaim.
