From: Johannes Weiner Date: Thu, 14 Jan 2016 23:20:59 +0000 (-0800) Subject: net: tcp_memcontrol: properly detect ancestor socket pressure X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8c2c2358b236530bc2c79b4c2a447cbdbc3d96d7;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git net: tcp_memcontrol: properly detect ancestor socket pressure When charging socket memory, the code currently checks only the local page counter for excess to determine whether the memcg is under socket pressure. But even if the local counter is fine, one of the ancestors could have breached its limit, which should also force this child to enter socket pressure. This currently doesn't happen. Fix this by using page_counter_try_charge() first. If that fails, it means that either the local counter or one of the ancestors are in excess of their limit, and the child should enter socket pressure.
