[Devel] [PATCH v4 08/11] memcg: add dirty limits to mem_cgroup

Fri Oct 29 00:09:11 PDT 2010
Extend mem_cgroup to contain dirty page limits. Also add routines
allowing the kernel to query the dirty usage of a memcg.
These interfaces not used by the kernel yet. A subsequent commit
will add kernel calls to utilize these new routines.

Changelog since v3:
- Previously memcontrol.c used struct vm_dirty_param and vm_dirty_param() to
advertise dirty memory limits. Now struct dirty_info and
mem_cgroup_dirty_info() is used to share dirty limits between memcontrol and
the rest of the kernel.
- __mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit() now returns false if use_hierarchy is set.
- memcg_hierarchical_free_pages() now uses parent_mem_cgroup() and is simpler.
- created internal routine, __mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit(), to consolidate the
logic.
Changelog since v1:
- Rename (for clarity):
- mem_cgroup_write_page_stat_item -> mem_cgroup_page_stat_item
- mem_cgroup_read_page_stat_item -> mem_cgroup_nr_pages_item
- Removed unnecessary get_ prefix from get_xxx() functions.
- Avoid lockdep warnings by using rcu_read_[un]lock() in
mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit().
