[Devel] [PATCH v6 8/8] Disable task moving when using kernel memory accounting

Glauber Costa glommer at parallels.com
Mon Oct 10 03:24:28 PDT 2011


Since this code is still experimental, we are leaving the exact
details of how to move tasks between cgroups when kernel memory
accounting is used as future work.

For now, we simply disallow movement if there are any pending
accounted memory.
