Subject: [PATCH v2] kvm, mm: account shadow page tables to kmemcg
Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2018 07:02:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180629140224.205849-1-shakeelb@google.com> (raw)
The size of kvm's shadow page tables corresponds to the size of the
guest virtual machines on the system. Large VMs can spend a significant
amount of memory as shadow page tables which can not be left as system
memory overhead. So, account shadow page tables to the kmemcg.
