This is an attempt to implement David Rientjes' idea of mempressure cgroup.
The main characteristics are the same to what I've tried to add to vmevent API: Internally, it uses Mel Gorman's idea of scanned/reclaimed ratio for pressure index calculation. But we don't expose the index to the userland. Instead, there are three levels of the pressure: o low (just reclaiming, e.g. caches are draining); o medium (allocation cost becomes high, e.g. swapping); o oom (about to oom very soon). The rationale behind exposing levels and not the raw pressure index described here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/675 The API uses standard cgroups eventfd notifications: $ gcc Documentation/cgroups/cgroup_event_listener.c -o \ cgroup_event_listener $ cd /sys/fs/cgroup/ $ mkdir mempressure $ mount -t cgroup cgroup ./mempressure -o mempressure $ cd mempressure $ cgroup_event_listener ./mempressure.level low ("low", "medium", "oom" are permitted values.) Upon hitting the threshold, you should see "/sys/fs/cgroup/mempressure low: crossed" messages. To test that it actually works on per-cgroup basis, I did a small trick: I moved all kswapd into a separate cgroup, and hooked the listener onto another (non-root) cgroup. The listener no longer received global reclaim pressure, which is expected. For a task it is possible to be in both cpusets, memcg and mempressure cgroups, so by rearranging the tasks it should be possible to watch a specific pressure. Note that while this adds the cgroups support, the code is well separated and eventually we might add a lightweight, non-cgroups API, i.e. vmevent. But this is another story.
