+Memory Resource Controller(Memcg)  Implementation Memo.
+Last Updated: 2010/2
+Base Kernel Version: based on 2.6.33-rc7-mm(candidate for 34).
+
+Because VM is getting complex (one of reasons is memcg...), memcg's behavior
+is complex. This is a document for memcg's internal behavior.
+Please note that implementation details can be changed.
+
+(*) Topics on API should be in Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt)
+
+0. How to record usage ?
+   2 objects are used.
+
+   page_cgroup ....an object per page.
+	Allocated at boot or memory hotplug. Freed at memory hot removal.
+
+   swap_cgroup ... an entry per swp_entry.
+	Allocated at swapon(). Freed at swapoff().
+
+   The page_cgroup has USED bit and double count against a page_cgroup never
+   occurs. swap_cgroup is used only when a charged page is swapped-out.
+
+1. Charge
+
+   a page/swp_entry may be charged (usage += PAGE_SIZE) at
+
+	mem_cgroup_try_charge()
+
+2. Uncharge
+  a page/swp_entry may be uncharged (usage -= PAGE_SIZE) by
+
+	mem_cgroup_uncharge()
+	  Called when a page's refcount goes down to 0.
+
+	mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap()
+	  Called when swp_entry's refcnt goes down to 0. A charge against swap
+	  disappears.
+
+3. charge-commit-cancel
+	Memcg pages are charged in two steps:
+		mem_cgroup_try_charge()
+		mem_cgroup_commit_charge() or mem_cgroup_cancel_charge()
+
+	At try_charge(), there are no flags to say "this page is charged".
+	at this point, usage += PAGE_SIZE.
+
+	At commit(), the page is associated with the memcg.
+
+	At cancel(), simply usage -= PAGE_SIZE.
+
+Under below explanation, we assume CONFIG_MEM_RES_CTRL_SWAP=y.
+
+4. Anonymous
+	Anonymous page is newly allocated at
+		  - page fault into MAP_ANONYMOUS mapping.
+		  - Copy-On-Write.
+
+	4.1 Swap-in.
+	At swap-in, the page is taken from swap-cache. There are 2 cases.
+
+	(a) If the SwapCache is newly allocated and read, it has no charges.
+	(b) If the SwapCache has been mapped by processes, it has been
+	    charged already.
+
+	4.2 Swap-out.
+	At swap-out, typical state transition is below.
+
+	(a) add to swap cache. (marked as SwapCache)
+	    swp_entry's refcnt += 1.
+	(b) fully unmapped.
+	    swp_entry's refcnt += # of ptes.
+	(c) write back to swap.
+	(d) delete from swap cache. (remove from SwapCache)
+	    swp_entry's refcnt -= 1.
+
+
+	Finally, at task exit,
+	(e) zap_pte() is called and swp_entry's refcnt -=1 -> 0.
+
+5. Page Cache
+   	Page Cache is charged at
+	- add_to_page_cache_locked().
+
+	The logic is very clear. (About migration, see below)
+	Note: __remove_from_page_cache() is called by remove_from_page_cache()
+	and __remove_mapping().
+
+6. Shmem(tmpfs) Page Cache
+	The best way to understand shmem's page state transition is to read
+	mm/shmem.c.
+	But brief explanation of the behavior of memcg around shmem will be
+	helpful to understand the logic.
+
+	Shmem's page (just leaf page, not direct/indirect block) can be on
+		- radix-tree of shmem's inode.
+		- SwapCache.
+		- Both on radix-tree and SwapCache. This happens at swap-in
+		  and swap-out,
+
+	It's charged when...
+	- A new page is added to shmem's radix-tree.
+	- A swp page is read. (move a charge from swap_cgroup to page_cgroup)
+
+7. Page Migration
+
+	mem_cgroup_migrate()
+
+8. LRU
+        Each memcg has its own private LRU. Now, its handling is under global
+	VM's control (means that it's handled under global zone->lru_lock).
+	Almost all routines around memcg's LRU is called by global LRU's
+	list management functions under zone->lru_lock().
+
+	A special function is mem_cgroup_isolate_pages(). This scans
+	memcg's private LRU and call __isolate_lru_page() to extract a page
+	from LRU.
+	(By __isolate_lru_page(), the page is removed from both of global and
+	 private LRU.)
+
+
+9. Typical Tests.
+
+ Tests for racy cases.
+
+ 9.1 Small limit to memcg.
+	When you do test to do racy case, it's good test to set memcg's limit
+	to be very small rather than GB. Many races found in the test under
+	xKB or xxMB limits.
+	(Memory behavior under GB and Memory behavior under MB shows very
+	 different situation.)
+
+ 9.2 Shmem
+	Historically, memcg's shmem handling was poor and we saw some amount
+	of troubles here. This is because shmem is page-cache but can be
+	SwapCache. Test with shmem/tmpfs is always good test.
+
+ 9.3 Migration
+	For NUMA, migration is an another special case. To do easy test, cpuset
+	is useful. Following is a sample script to do migration.
+
+	mount -t cgroup -o cpuset none /opt/cpuset
+
+	mkdir /opt/cpuset/01
+	echo 1 > /opt/cpuset/01/cpuset.cpus
+	echo 0 > /opt/cpuset/01/cpuset.mems
+	echo 1 > /opt/cpuset/01/cpuset.memory_migrate
+	mkdir /opt/cpuset/02
+	echo 1 > /opt/cpuset/02/cpuset.cpus
+	echo 1 > /opt/cpuset/02/cpuset.mems
+	echo 1 > /opt/cpuset/02/cpuset.memory_migrate
+
+	In above set, when you moves a task from 01 to 02, page migration to
+	node 0 to node 1 will occur. Following is a script to migrate all
+	under cpuset.
+	--
+	move_task()
+	{
+	for pid in $1
+        do
+                /bin/echo $pid >$2/tasks 2>/dev/null
+		echo -n $pid
+		echo -n " "
+        done
+	echo END
+	}
+
+	G1_TASK=`cat ${G1}/tasks`
+	G2_TASK=`cat ${G2}/tasks`
+	move_task "${G1_TASK}" ${G2} &
+	--
+ 9.4 Memory hotplug.
+	memory hotplug test is one of good test.
+	to offline memory, do following.
+	# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state
+	(XXX is the place of memory)
+	This is an easy way to test page migration, too.
+
+ 9.5 mkdir/rmdir
+	When using hierarchy, mkdir/rmdir test should be done.
+	Use tests like the following.
+
+	echo 1 >/opt/cgroup/01/memory/use_hierarchy
+	mkdir /opt/cgroup/01/child_a
+	mkdir /opt/cgroup/01/child_b
+
+	set limit to 01.
+	add limit to 01/child_b
+	run jobs under child_a and child_b
+
+	create/delete following groups at random while jobs are running.
+	/opt/cgroup/01/child_a/child_aa
+	/opt/cgroup/01/child_b/child_bb
+	/opt/cgroup/01/child_c
+
+	running new jobs in new group is also good.
+
+ 9.6 Mount with other subsystems.
+	Mounting with other subsystems is a good test because there is a
+	race and lock dependency with other cgroup subsystems.
+
+	example)
+	# mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o cpuset,memory,cpu,devices
+
+	and do task move, mkdir, rmdir etc...under this.
+
+ 9.7 swapoff.
+	Besides management of swap is one of complicated parts of memcg,
+	call path of swap-in at swapoff is not same as usual swap-in path..
+	It's worth to be tested explicitly.
+
+	For example, test like following is good.
+	(Shell-A)
+	# mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o memory
+	# mkdir /cgroup/test
+	# echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
+	# echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
+	Run malloc(100M) program under this. You'll see 60M of swaps.
+	(Shell-B)
+	# move all tasks in /cgroup/test to /cgroup
+	# /sbin/swapoff -a
+	# rmdir /cgroup/test
+	# kill malloc task.
+
+	Of course, tmpfs v.s. swapoff test should be tested, too.
+
+ 9.8 OOM-Killer
+	Out-of-memory caused by memcg's limit will kill tasks under
+	the memcg. When hierarchy is used, a task under hierarchy
+	will be killed by the kernel.
+	In this case, panic_on_oom shouldn't be invoked and tasks
+	in other groups shouldn't be killed.
+
+	It's not difficult to cause OOM under memcg as following.
+	Case A) when you can swapoff
+	#swapoff -a
+	#echo 50M > /memory.limit_in_bytes
+	run 51M of malloc
+
+	Case B) when you use mem+swap limitation.
+	#echo 50M > memory.limit_in_bytes
+	#echo 50M > memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
+	run 51M of malloc
+
+ 9.9 Move charges at task migration
+	Charges associated with a task can be moved along with task migration.
+
+	(Shell-A)
+	#mkdir /cgroup/A
+	#echo $$ >/cgroup/A/tasks
+	run some programs which uses some amount of memory in /cgroup/A.
+
+	(Shell-B)
+	#mkdir /cgroup/B
+	#echo 1 >/cgroup/B/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
+	#echo "pid of the program running in group A" >/cgroup/B/tasks
+
+	You can see charges have been moved by reading *.usage_in_bytes or
+	memory.stat of both A and B.
+	See 8.2 of Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt to see what value should be
+	written to move_charge_at_immigrate.
+
+ 9.10 Memory thresholds
+	Memory controller implements memory thresholds using cgroups notification
+	API. You can use tools/cgroup/cgroup_event_listener.c to test it.
+
+	(Shell-A) Create cgroup and run event listener
+	# mkdir /cgroup/A
+	# ./cgroup_event_listener /cgroup/A/memory.usage_in_bytes 5M
+
+	(Shell-B) Add task to cgroup and try to allocate and free memory
+	# echo $$ >/cgroup/A/tasks
+	# a="$(dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=10)"
+	# a=
+
+	You will see message from cgroup_event_listener every time you cross
+	the thresholds.
+
+	Use /cgroup/A/memory.memsw.usage_in_bytes to test memsw thresholds.
+
+	It's good idea to test root cgroup as well.
