Patch series "memcg: Slow down swap allocation as the available space gets depleted", v6. Tejun describes the problem as follows: When swap runs out, there's an abrupt change in system behavior - the anonymous memory suddenly becomes unmanageable which readily breaks any sort of memory isolation and can bring down the whole system. To avoid that, oomd [1] monitors free swap space and triggers kills when it drops below the specific threshold (e.g. 15%). While this works, it's far from ideal: - Depending on IO performance and total swap size, a given headroom might not be enough or too much. - oomd has to monitor swap depletion in addition to the usual pressure metrics and it currently doesn't consider memory.swap.max. Solve this by adapting parts of the approach that memory.high uses - slow down allocation as the resource gets depleted turning the depletion behavior from abrupt cliff one to gradual degradation observable through memory pressure metric. [1] https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd This patch (of 4): Slice the memory overage calculation logic a little bit so we can reuse it to apply a similar penalty to the swap. The logic which accesses the memory-specific fields (use and high values) has to be taken out of calculate_high_delay().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
