[PATCH v2] cgroup/cpuset: call fmeter_init() when cpuset.memory_pressure disabled

From: Jin Guojie
Date: Wed Jan 15 2025 - 00:05:45 EST


When running LTP's cpuset_memory_pressure program, the following error occurs:

(1) Create a cgroup, enable cpuset subsystem, set memory limit, and
then set cpuset_memory_pressure to 1
(2) In this cgroup, create a process to allocate a large amount of
memory and generate pressure counts
(3) Set cpuset_memory_pressure to 0
(4) Check cpuset.memory_pressure: LTP thinks it should be 0, but the
current kernel returns a value of 1, so LTP determines it as FAIL

V2:
* call fmeter_init() when writing 0 to the memory_pressure_enabled

Compared with patch v1 [1], this version implements clearer logic.
