Re: [PATCH v2 3/7] memcg: use compound_order rather than hpage_nr_pages

Tsukada-san,

I am not familiar with memcg so can't comment about whether the patchset
is the right way to solve the problem outlined in the cover letter but
had a couple of comments about this patch.

The current memcg implementation assumes that the compound page is THP.
In order to be able to charge surplus hugepage, we use compound_order.

Signed-off-by: TSUKADA Koutaro <redacted>

Please move this before Patch 1/7. This is to prevent wrong accounting
of pages to memcg for size != PMD_SIZE.

I just noticed that the default state is off so the change isn't enabled
until the sysfs node is exposed in the next patch. Please ignore this
comment.

One below still applies.

Instead of replacing calls to hpage_nr_pages(), is it possible to modify
it to do the calculation?

Thanks,
Punit
