From 4d1c627389c8ba6d9e703208567ffcdbd356f682 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daisuke Nishimura Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2009 13:51:14 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] memcg: make oom less frequently In previous implementation, mem_cgroup_try_charge checked the return value of mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages, and just retried if some pages had been reclaimed. But now, try_charge(and mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim called from it) only checks whether the usage is less than the limit. This patch tries to change the behavior as before to cause oom less frequently.
