Subject: [PATCH v1 9/9] memcg: do not modify rstat tree for zero updates
Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2023 06:16:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230328061638.203420-10-yosryahmed@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230328061638.203420-1-yosryahmed@google.com>

In some situations, we may end up calling memcg_rstat_updated() with a
value of 0, which means the stat was not actually updated. An example is
if we fail to reclaim any pages in shrink_folio_list().

Do not add the cgroup to the rstat updated tree in this case, to avoid
unnecessarily flushing it.
