5.2 stat file

memory.stat file includes following statistics

cache - # of bytes of page cache memory.
rss - # of bytes of anonymous and swap cache memory.
pgpgin - # of pages paged in (equivalent to # of charging events).
pgpgout - # of pages paged out (equivalent to # of uncharging events).
active_anon - # of bytes of anonymous and swap cache memory on active

inactive_anon - # of bytes of anonymous memory and swap cache memory on
inactive lru list.
active_file - # of bytes of file-backed memory on active lru list.
inactive_file - # of bytes of file-backed memory on inactive lru list.
unevictable - # of bytes of memory that cannot be reclaimed (mlocked etc).

The following additional stats are dependent on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM.

inactive_ratio - VM internal parameter. (see mm/page_alloc.c)
recent_rotated_anon - VM internal parameter. (see mm/vmscan.c)
recent_rotated_file - VM internal parameter. (see mm/vmscan.c)
recent_scanned_anon - VM internal parameter. (see mm/vmscan.c)

Note:
Only anonymous and swap cache memory is listed as part of 'rss' stat.
This should not be confused with the true 'resident set size' or the
amount of physical memory used by the cgroup. Per-cgroup rss
accounting is not done yet.

a. void res_counter_init(struct res_counter *rc)

Initializes the resource counter. As usual, should be the first
routine called for a new counter.

The struct res_counter *parent can be used to define a hierarchical
child -> parent relationship directly in the res_counter structure,
NULL can be used to define no relationship.

If the charging fails and a hierarchical dependency exists, the
limit_fail_at parameter is set to the particular res_counter element
where the charging failed.

d. int res_counter_charge_locked
(struct res_counter *rc, unsigned long val)

The same as res_counter_charge(), but it must not acquire/release the
res_counter->lock internally (it must be called with res_counter->lock
held).

e. void res_counter_uncharge[_locked]
c. void res_counter_uncharge[_locked]
(struct res_counter *rc, unsigned long val)

When a resource is released (freed) it should be de-accounted
from the resource counter it was accounted to. This is called
"uncharging".

The _locked routines imply that the res_counter->lock is taken.
