memcg: show memcg information during OOM
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Add RSS and swap to OOM output from memcg

Display memcg values like failcnt, usage and limit when an OOM occurs due
to memcg.

Thanks to Johannes Weiner, Li Zefan, David Rientjes, Kamezawa Hiroyuki,
Daisuke Nishimura and KOSAKI Motohiro for review.

Sample output
-------------

Task in /a/x killed as a result of limit of /a
memory: usage 1048576kB, limit 1048576kB, failcnt 4183
memory+swap: usage 1400964kB, limit 9007199254740991kB, failcnt 0

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: compilation fix]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix kerneldoc and whitespace]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: add printk facility level]
