It looks like a logic issue here, as we do alloc_pagecache 50MB
respectively in the leaf_cg[C, D, E, F] and only the 'memory.low'
of leaf_cg[E] is large enough (500MB) to avoid triggering low event.
The rest cgroups should all have low events, that kernel behavior
is correct.

This failure should be fix with:

--- a/testcases/kernel/controllers/memcg/memcontrol04.c
+++ b/testcases/kernel/controllers/memcg/memcontrol04.c
@@ -192,7 +192,7 @@ static void test_memcg_low(void)

                TST_EXP_EXPR(oom == 0, "(oom events=%ld) == 0", oom);

-               if (i < E)
+               if (i != E)
                        TST_EXP_EXPR(low > 0, "(low events=%ld) > 0", low)
                else
                        TST_EXP_EXPR(low == 0, "(low events=%ld) == 0",
low);


And better to add "leaf_cg%d" print in the output:
(to show the events from which cgroup)

    TST_EXP_EXPR(oom == 0, "(leaf_cg%d: oom events=%ld) == 0", i, oom);

    if (i != E)
            TST_EXP_EXPR(low > 0, "(leaf_cg%d: low events=%ld) > 0", i,
 low)
    else
             TST_EXP_EXPR(low == 0, "(leaf_cg%d: low events=%ld) == 0", i,
low);
