Memcg maintains a private MEMCG_RSS counter. This divergence from the generic VM accounting means unnecessary code overhead, and creates a dependency for memcg that page->mapping is set up at the time of charging, so that page types can be told apart. Convert the generic accounting sites to mod_lruvec_page_state and friends to maintain the per-cgroup vmstat counter of NR_ANON_MAPPED. We use lock_page_memcg() to stabilize page->mem_cgroup during rmap changes, the same way we do for NR_FILE_MAPPED. With the previous patch removing MEMCG_CACHE and the private NR_SHMEM counter, this patch finally eliminates the need to have page->mapping set up at charge time. However, we need to have page->mem_cgroup set up by the time rmap runs and does the accounting, so switch the commit and the rmap callbacks around. v2: fix temporary accounting bug by switching rmap<->commit (Joonsoo) Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Cc: Alex Shi <[email protected]> Cc: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <[email protected]> Cc: "Kirill A.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
