Subject: [rfc patch 4/6] memcg: reclaim statistics

TODO: write proper changelog.  Here is an excerpt from
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110428123652.GM12437@cmpxchg.org:

: 1. Limit-triggered direct reclaim
:
: The memory cgroup hits its limit and the task does direct reclaim from
: its own memcg.  We probably want statistics for this separately from
: background reclaim to see how successful background reclaim is, the
: same reason we have this separation in the global vmstat as well.
:
: 	pgscan_direct_limit
: 	pgfree_direct_limit
:
: 2. Limit-triggered background reclaim
:
: This is the watermark-based asynchroneous reclaim that is currently in
: discussion.  It's triggered by the memcg breaching its watermark,
: which is relative to its hard-limit.  I named it kswapd because I
: still think kswapd should do this job, but it is all open for
: discussion, obviously.  Treat it as meaning 'background' or
: 'asynchroneous'.
:
: 	pgscan_kswapd_limit
: 	pgfree_kswapd_limit
:
: 3. Hierarchy-triggered direct reclaim
:
: A condition outside the memcg leads to a task directly reclaiming from
: this memcg.  This could be global memory pressure for example, but
: also a parent cgroup hitting its limit.  It's probably helpful to
: assume global memory pressure meaning that the root cgroup hit its
: limit, conceptually.  We don't have that yet, but this could be the
: direct softlimit reclaim Ying mentioned above.
:
: 	pgscan_direct_hierarchy
: 	pgsteal_direct_hierarchy
:
: 4. Hierarchy-triggered background reclaim
:
: An outside condition leads to kswapd reclaiming from this memcg, like
: kswapd doing softlimit pushback due to global memory pressure.
:
: 	pgscan_kswapd_hierarchy
: 	pgsteal_kswapd_hierarchy
:
: ---
:
: With these stats in place, you can see how much pressure there is on
: your memcg hierarchy.  This includes machine utilization and if you
: overcommitted too much on a global level if there is a lot of reclaim
: activity indicated in the hierarchical stats.
:
: With the limit-based stats, you can see the amount of internal
: pressure of memcgs, which shows you if you overcommitted on a local
: level.
:
: And for both cases, you can also see the effectiveness of background
: reclaim by comparing the direct and the kswapd stats.
