[PATCH v3 22/32] memcg,list_lru: duplicate LRUs upon kmemcg creation

Glauber Costa glommer at parallels.com
Mon Apr 8 14:00:49 UTC 2013


When a new memcg is created, we need to open up room for its descriptors
in all of the list_lrus that are marked per-memcg. The process is quite
similar to the one we are using for the kmem caches: we initialize the
new structures in an array indexed by kmemcg_id, and grow the array if
needed. Key data like the size of the array will be shared between the
kmem cache code and the list_lru code (they basically describe the same
thing)
