Subject: [PATCH v5 1/6] cgroup/dmem: Add queries for protection values
Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2026 13:37:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260302-dmemcg-aggressive-protect-v5-1-ffd3a2602309@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260302-dmemcg-aggressive-protect-v5-0-ffd3a2602309@gmx.de>
Callers can use this feedback to be more aggressive in making space for
allocations of a cgroup if they know it is protected.
These are counterparts to memcg's mem_cgroup_below_{min,low}.
