[RFC][PATCH 4/6] memcg: swap cgroup for remembering account

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Tue Nov 11 2008 - 22:30:43 EST



For accounting swap, we need a record per swap entry, at least.

This patch adds following function.
- swap_cgroup_swapon() .... called from swapon
- swap_cgroup_swapoff() ... called at the end of swapoff.

- swap_cgroup_record() .... record information of swap entry.
- swap_cgroup_lookup() .... lookup information of swap entry.

This patch just implements "how to record information". No actual
method for limit the usage of swap. These routine uses flat table
to record and lookup. "wise" lookup system like radix-tree requires
requires memory allocation at new records but swap-out is usually
called under memory shortage (or memcg hits limit.)
So, I used static allocation. (maybe dynamic allocation is not very
hard but it adds additional memory allocation in memory shortage path.)


Note1: In this, we use pointer to record information and this means
8bytes per swap entry. I think we can reduce this when we
create "id of cgroup" in the range of 0-65535 or 0-255.

Note2: array of swap_cgroup is allocated from HIGHMEM. maybe good for x86-32.

Changelog: v1 -> v2
- fixed bug in swapoff.
