[PATCH] mm, memcg: fix inconsistent oom event behavior

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

 



A recent commit 9852ae3fe529 ("mm, memcg: consider subtrees in
memory.events") changes the behavior of memcg events, which will
consider subtrees in memory.events. But oom_kill event is a special one
as it is used in both cgroup1 and cgroup2. In cgroup1, it is displayed
in memory.oom_control. The file memory.oom_control is in both root memcg
and non root memcg, that is different with memory.event as it only in
non-root memcg. That commit is okay for cgroup2, but it is not okay for
cgroup1 as it will cause inconsistent behavior between root memcg and
non-root memcg.
Let's recover the original behavior for cgroup1.
