[Devel] [RFC][PATCH][1/4] RSS controller setup

Sun Feb 18 22:50:26 PST 2007


This patch sets up the basic controller infrastructure on top of the
containers infrastructure. Two files are provided for monitoring
and control  memctlr_usage and memctlr_limit.

memctlr_usage shows the current usage (in pages, of RSS) and the limit
set by the user.

memctlr_limit can be used to set a limit on the RSS usage of the resource.
A special value of 0, indicates that the usage is unlimited. The limit
is set in units of pages.
