[patch 8/8] memcg: sanitize __mem_cgroup_try_charge() call protocol
From: Johannes Weiner
Date: Tue Mar 11 2014 - 21:29:17 EST
Some callsites pass a memcg directly, some callsites pass a mm that
first has to be translated to an mm. This makes for a terrible
function interface.
Just push the mm-to-memcg translation into the respective callsites
and always pass a memcg to mem_cgroup_try_charge().

- * __mem_cgroup_try_charge() does

- * 3. call memory reclaim if necessary.
- *
- * In some special case, if the task is fatal, fatal_signal_pending() or
- * has TIF_MEMDIE, this function returns -EINTR while writing root_mem_cgroup
- * to *ptr. There are two reasons for this. 1: fatal threads should quit as soon
- * as possible without any hazards. 2: all pages should have a valid
- * pc->mem_cgroup. If mm is NULL and the caller doesn't pass a valid memcg
- * pointer, that is treated as a charge to root_mem_cgroup.
- *
- * So __mem_cgroup_try_charge() will return
- * 0 ... on success, filling *ptr with a valid memcg pointer.
- * -ENOMEM ... charge failure because of resource limits.
- * -EINTR ... if thread is fatal. *ptr is filled with root_mem_cgroup.
