[PATCH 4/4] [BUGFIX] fix account leak at force_empty, rmdir withTHP

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Fri Jan 14 2011 - 05:21:40 EST



Now, when THP is enabled, memcg's rmdir() function is broken
because move_account() for THP page is not supported.

This will cause account leak or -EBUSY issue at rmdir().
This patch fixes the issue by supporting move_account() THP pages.

And account information will be moved to its parent at rmdir().

How to test:
79 mount -t cgroup none /cgroup/memory/ -o memory
80 mkdir /cgroup/A/
81 mkdir /cgroup/memory/A
82 mkdir /cgroup/memory/A/B
83 cgexec -g memory:A/B ./malloc 128 &
84 grep anon /cgroup/memory/A/B/memory.stat
85 grep rss /cgroup/memory/A/B/memory.stat
86 echo 1728 > /cgroup/memory/A/tasks
87 grep rss /cgroup/memory/A/memory.stat
88 rmdir /cgroup/memory/A/B/
89 grep rss /cgroup/memory/A/memory.stat

- Create 2 level directory and exec a task calls malloc(big chunk).
- Move a task somewhere (its parent cgroup in above)
- rmdir /A/B
- check memory.stat in /A/B is moved to /A after rmdir. and confirm
RSS/LRU information includes usages it was charged against /A/B.
