Re: [PATCH 4/4] memcg: force use_hierarchy if sane_behavior

From: Serge Hallyn
Date: Sun Apr 14 2013 - 21:07:01 EST


Quoting Tejun Heo (tj@xxxxxxxxxx):
> Turn on use_hierarchy by default if sane_behavior is specified and
> don't create .use_hierarchy file.

> It is debatable whether to remove .use_hierarchy file or make it ro as

> behavior changes which will be gated by sane_behavior are intensive
> including changing basic meaning of certain control knobs in a few
> controllers and I don't really think keeping this piece would make
> things easier in any noticeable way, so let's remove it.
