This patch provides a function to move account information of a page between mem_cgroups and rewrite force_empty to make use of this. This moving of page_cgroup is done under - lru_lock of source/destination mem_cgroup is held. - lock_page_cgroup() is held. Then, a routine which touches pc->mem_cgroup without lock_page_cgroup() should confirm pc->mem_cgroup is still valid or not. Typical code can be following. (while page is not under lock_page()) mem = pc->mem_cgroup; mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc) spin_lock_irqsave(&mz->lru_lock); if (pc->mem_cgroup == mem) ...../* some list handling */ spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mz->lru_lock); Of course, better way is lock_page_cgroup(pc); .... unlock_page_cgroup(pc); But you should confirm the nest of lock and avoid deadlock. If you treats page_cgroup from mem_cgroup's LRU under mz->lru_lock, you don't have to worry about what pc->mem_cgroup points to. moved pages are added to head of lru, not to tail. Expected users of this routine is: - force_empty (rmdir) - moving tasks between cgroup (for moving account information.) - hierarchy (maybe useful.) force_empty(rmdir) uses this move_account and move pages to its parent. This "move" will not cause OOM (I added "oom" parameter to try_charge().) If the parent is busy (not enough memory), force_empty calls try_to_free_page() and reduce usage. Purpose of this behavior is - Fix "forget all" behavior of force_empty and avoid leak of accounting. - By "moving first, free if necessary", keep pages on memory as much as possible. Adding a switch to change behavior of force_empty to - free first, move if necessary - free all, if there is mlocked/busy pages, return -EBUSY. is under consideration. (I'll add if someone requtests.) This patch also removes memory.force_empty file, a brutal debug-only interface.
