[PATCH -mmotm 5/5] memcg: dirty pages instrumentation

Andrea Righi arighi at develer.com
Tue Mar 9 15:00:36 PST 2010


Apply the cgroup dirty pages accounting and limiting infrastructure to
the opportune kernel functions.

[ NOTE: for now do not account WritebackTmp pages (FUSE) and NILFS2
bounce pages. This depends on charging also bounce pages per cgroup. ]

As a bonus, make determine_dirtyable_memory() static again: this
function isn't used anymore outside page writeback.
