8. LRU
======
- Each memcg has its own private LRU. Now, its handling is under global
- VM's control (means that it's handled under global pgdat->lru_lock).
- Almost all routines around memcg's LRU is called by global LRU's
- list management functions under pgdat->lru_lock.
-
- A special function is mem_cgroup_isolate_pages(). This scans
- memcg's private LRU and call __isolate_lru_page() to extract a page
- from LRU.
-
- (By __isolate_lru_page(), the page is removed from both of global and
- private LRU.)
-
+ Each memcg has its own vector of LRUs (inactive anon, active anon,
+ inactive file, active file, unevictable) of pages from each node,
+ each LRU handled under a single lru_lock for that memcg and node.
