From cfd36e3829bca70aa3952fbad0cd7e41167fbcc4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dongwoo Lee Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2020 14:44:43 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] mm: memcontrol: Add force_reclaim to reclaim tasks' memory in memcg These days, platforms tend to manage memory on low memory state like andloid's lowmemory killer. These platforms might want to reclaim memory from background tasks as well as kill victims to guarantee free memory at use space level. This patch provides an interface to reclaim a given memcg. After platform's low memory handler moves tasks that the platform wants to reclaim to a memcg and decides how many pages should be reclaimed, it can reclaim the pages from the tasks by writing the number of pages at memory.force_reclaim.
