[Devel] [PATCH v14 12/18] vmscan: shrink slab on memcg pressure

Mon Dec 16 04:17:01 PST 2013
This patch makes direct reclaim path shrink slab not only on global
memory pressure, but also when we reach the user memory limit of a
memcg. To achieve that, it makes shrink_slab() walk over the memcg
hierarchy and run shrinkers marked as memcg-aware on the target memcg
and all its descendants. The memcg to scan is passed in a shrink_control
structure; memcg-unaware shrinkers are still called only on global
memory pressure with memcg=NULL. It is up to the shrinker how to
organize the objects it is responsible for to achieve per-memcg reclaim.
Note that we do not intend to have true per memcg per node reclaim.
Since most memcgs are small and typically confined to a single NUMA node
or two by external means and therefore do not need the scalability NUMA
aware shrinkers provide, we actually call per node shrinking only for
the global list (memcg=NULL), while per-memcg lists are always scanned
only once irrespective of the nodemask with nid=0.
The idea lying behind the patch as well as the initial implementation
belong to Glauber Costa.
