[PATCH mm v5 8/9] memcg: enable accounting for allocations in alloc_fair_sched_group

From: Vasily Averin
Date: Thu Jun 23 2022 - 10:52:12 EST


Creating of each new cpu cgroup allocates two 512-bytes kernel objects
per CPU. This is especially important for cgroups shared parent memory
cgroup. In this scenario, on nodes with multiple processors, these
allocations become one of the main memory consumers.

Memory allocated during new cpu cgroup creation:
common part: ~11Kb + 318 bytes percpu
cpu cgroup: ~2.5Kb + 1036 bytes percpu

Accounting for this memory helps to avoid misuse inside memcg-limited
contianers.
