SubjectRe: [RFC][PATCH 5/8] RSS controller task migration support

Hi Balbir,

The get_task_mm()/mmput(mm) usage is not correct.
With CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP=y :

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/fork.c:390
in_atomic():1, irqs_disabled():0

current->mm seems to be enough here.



In patch4, memctlr_dec_rss(page, mm) should be memctlr_dec_rss(page)
to compile correctly.

and in patch0 :
> 4. Disable cpuset's (to simply assignment of tasks to resource groups)
> cd /container
> echo 0 > cpuset_enabled

should be :
echo 0 > cpuacct_enabled

Note : cpuacct_enabled is 0 by default.


Now the big question : to implement guarantee, the LRU needs to know
if a page can be removed from memory or not.
Any ideas to do that without any change in the struct page ?
