Initial notes:
==============

Mel, Dave, this is the last round of fixes I have for the series. The fixes are
few, and I was mostly interested in getting this out based on an up2date tree
so Dave can verify it. This should apply fine ontop of Friday's linux-next.
Alternatively, please grab from branch "kmemcg-lru-shrinker" at:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/glommer/memcg.git

Main changes from *v5:
* Rebased to linux-next, and fix the conflicts with the dcache.
* Make sure LRU_RETRY only retry once
* Prevent the bcache shrinker to scan the caches when disabled (by returning
  0 in the count function)
* Fix i915 return code when mutex cannot be acquired.
* Only scan less-than-batch objects in memcg scenarios

Hi,

This patchset implements targeted shrinking for memcg when kmem limits are
present. So far, we've been accounting kernel objects but failing allocations
when short of memory. This is because our only option would be to call the
global shrinker, depleting objects from all caches and breaking isolation.

The main idea is to associate per-memcg lists with each of the LRUs. The main
LRU still provides a single entry point and when adding or removing an element
from the LRU, we use the page information to figure out which memcg it belongs
to and relay it to the right list.

Base work:
==========

Please note that this builds upon the recent work from Dave Chinner that
sanitizes the LRU shrinking API and make the shrinkers node aware. Node
awareness is not *strictly* needed for my work, but I still perceive it
as an advantage. The API unification is a major need, and I build upon it
heavily. That allows us to manipulate the LRUs without knowledge of the
underlying objects with ease. This time, I am including that work here as
a baseline.

Main changes from *v5:
* Rebased to linux-next, and fix the conflicts with the dcache.
* Make sure LRU_RETRY only retry once
* Prevent the bcache shrinker to scan the caches when disabled (by returning
  0 in the count function)
* Fix i915 return code when mutex cannot be acquired.
* Only scan less-than-batch objects in memcg scenarios

Main changes from *v4:
* Fixed a bug in user-generated memcg pressure
* Fixed overly-agressive slab shrinker behavior spotted by Mel Gorman
* Various other fixes and comments by Mel Gorman

Main changes from *v3:
* Merged suggestions from mailing list.
* Removed the memcg-walking code from LRU. vmscan now drives all the hierarchy
  decisions, which makes more sense
* lazily free the old memcg arrays (needs now to be saved in struct lru). Since
  we need to call synchronize_rcu, calling it for every LRU can become expensive
* Moved the dead memcg shrinker to vmpressure. Already independently sent to
  linux-mm for review.
* Changed locking convention for LRU_RETRY. It now needs to return locked, which
  silents warnings about possible lock unbalance (although previous code was
  correct)

Main changes from *v2:
* shrink dead memcgs when global pressure kicks in. Uses the new lru API.
* bugfixes and comments from the mailing list.
* proper hierarchy-aware walk in shrink_slab.

Main changes from *v1:
* merged comments from the mailing list
* reworked lru-memcg API
* effective proportional shrinking
* sanitized locking on the memcg side
* bill user memory first when kmem == umem
* various bugfixes
