memcg: update document to mention that swapoff should be tested
Considering the recently found problem "memcg: fix refcnt handling at swapoff", it's better to mention swapoff behavior in the memcg_test document.

Because VM is getting complex (one of reasons is memcg...), memcg's behavior
|
||||
is complex. This is a document for memcg's internal behavior.

# mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -t cpuset,memory,cpu,devices

9.7 swapoff.
|
||||
Besides management of swap is one of complicated parts of memcg,
|
||||
call path of swap-in at swapoff is not same as usual swap-in path..
|
||||
It's worth to be tested explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, test like following is good.
|
||||
(Shell-A)
|
||||
# mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -t memory
|
||||
# mkdir /cgroup/test
|
||||
# echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
|
||||
# echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
|
||||
Run malloc(100M) program under this. You'll see 60M of swaps.
|
||||
(Shell-B)
|
||||
# move all tasks in /cgroup/test to /cgroup
|
||||
# /sbin/swapoff -a
|
||||
# rmdir /test/cgroup
|
||||
# kill malloc task.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, tmpfs v.s. swapoff test should be tested, too.
