Subject[RFC PATCH v3 0/9] pids controller events rework and migration charging
Date
The series consists of two parts:
- pids.events rework (originally v2, patches 1-6,
- migration charging, patches 7-9.

The changes are independent in principle, I stacked them for (my)
convenience and because they both deserve RFC:

1) Changed semantics of v2 pids.events
- similar change was proposed for memory.swap.events:max [1]
2) Migration charging is obsolete concept

How are the new events supposed to be useful?

- pids.events.local:max
- tells that cgroup's limit is hit (too tight?)
- pids.events.local:max.imposed
- tells that cgroup's workload was restricted (generalization of
'cgroup: fork rejected by pids controller in %s' message)
- pids.events:*
- "only" directs top-down search to cgroups of interest

The migration charging is motivated by apparenty surprising
pids.current > pids.max
because supervised processes are forked in supervisor's cgroup (more
details in commit cgroup/pids: Enforce pids.max on task migrations too)

Changes from v2 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200205134426.10570-1-mkoutny@suse.com)
- implemented pids.events.local (Tejun)
- added migration charging
