[RFC][PATCH 2/5] add softlimit to res_counter

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Wed Mar 11 2009 - 20:57:49 EST


From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Adds an interface for defining sotlimit per memcg. (no handler in this patch.)
softlimit paramater itself is added to res_counter and
res_counter_set_softlimit() and
res_counter_check_under_softlimit() is provided as an interface.


Changelog v2->v3:
- softlimit is moved to res_counter
Changelog v1->v2:
- For refactoring, divided a patch into 2 part and this patch just
involves memory.softlimit interface.
- Removed governor-detect routine, it was buggy in design.
