A swapped-in page is not accounted until it's mapped.

A swapped-in page is accounted after adding into swapcache.
|

|

Note: The kernel does swapin-readahead and reads multiple swaps at once.
|
||||
This means swapped-in pages may contain pages for other tasks than a task
|
||||
causing page fault. So, we avoid accounting at swap-in I/O.
|
||||
Since page's memcg recorded into swap whatever memsw enabled, the page will
|
||||
be accounted after swapin.
|

|

At page migration, accounting information is kept.

When you do swapoff and make swapped-out pages of shmem(tmpfs) to

--------------------------------------
|

|

Swap Extension allows you to record charge for swap. A swapped-in page is
|

charged back to original page allocator if possible.

Swap usage is always recorded for each of cgroup. Swap Extension allows you to

read and limit it.

When swap is accounted, following files are added.

When CONFIG_SWAP is enabled, following files are added.

- memory.memsw.usage_in_bytes.
|

- memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes.
