Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2006 19:07:35 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1138763255.3938.27.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Hi KUROSAWA,

I tried to use the controller but having some problems.

- Created class a,
- set guarantee to 50(with parent having 100, i expected class a to get 
  50% of memory in the system). 
- moved my shell to class a. 
- Issued a make in the kernel tree.
It consistently fails with 
-----------
make: getcwd: : Cannot allocate memory
Makefile:313: /scripts/Kbuild.include: No such file or directory
Makefile:532: /arch/i386/Makefile: No such file or directory
Can't open perl script "/scripts/setlocalversion": No such file or
directory
make: *** No rule to make target `/arch/i386/Makefile'.  Stop.
-----------
Note that the compilation succeeds if I move my shell to the default
class.

I got a oops too:

Note: "if (put_page_testzero(page)) {" is line 1074 in my source tree

Also, I do not see a mem= line in the stats file for the default class.
