Subject: [PATCH] fs, mm: account filp and names caches to kmemcg
Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2017 15:21:44 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171005222144.123797-1-shakeelb@google.com> (raw)
The allocations from filp and names kmem caches can be directly
triggered by user space applications. A buggy application can
consume a significant amount of unaccounted system memory. Though
we have not noticed such buggy applications in our production
but upon close inspection, we found that a lot of machines spend
very significant amount of memory on these caches. So, these
caches should be accounted to kmemcg.
