Subject: Re: [patch 1/3] mm: embed the memcg pointer directly into struct page
Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2014 18:17:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141103171748.GI10156@dhcp22.suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1414898156-4741-1-git-send-email-hannes@cmpxchg.org>

Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt is outdate even more hopelessly than
before. It deserves a complete rewrite but I guess something like the
following should be added in the meantime to prepare potential readers
about the trap.

 Memory Resource Controller
 
+NOTE: This document is hopelessly outdated and it asks for a complete
+      rewrite. It still contains a useful information so we are keeping it
+      here but make sure to check the current code if you need a deeper
+      understanding.
+
 NOTE: The Memory Resource Controller has generically been referred to as the
       memory controller in this document. Do not confuse memory controller
       used here with the memory controller that is used in hardware.
