With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, inactive:active size decisions are done on a per-cgroup level. As a result, we'll reclaim a cgroup's workingset when it doesn't have cold pages, even when one of its siblings has plenty of it that should be reclaimed first. For example: workload A has 50M worth of hot cache but doesn't do any one-off file accesses; meanwhile, parallel workload B scans files and rarely accesses the same page twice. If these workloads were to run in an uncgrouped system, A would be protected from the high rate of cache faults from B. But if they were put in parallel cgroups for memory accounting purposes, B's fast cache fault rate would push out the hot cache pages of A. This is unexpected and undesirable - the "scan resistance" of the page cache is broken. This patch moves inactive:active size balancing decisions to the root of reclaim - the same level where the LRU order is established. It does this by looking at the recursive size of the inactive and the active file sets of the cgroup subtree at the beginning of the reclaim cycle, and then making a decision - scan or skip active pages - that applies throughout the entire run and to every cgroup involved. With that in place, in the test above, the VM will recognize that there are plenty of inactive pages in the combined cache set of workloads A and B and prefer the one-off cache in B over the hot pages in A. The scan resistance of the cache is restored.
