From: Chunguang Xu <redacted> Introduce misc.events and misc.events.local to make it easier forI thought Tejun only gave go ahead for misc.events and not for misc.events.local.Maybe I missed something. I think events.local is somewhat useful. For example, the events of node A is large. If we need to determine whether it is caused by the max of node A, if there is no events.local, then we need to traverse the events of the child nodes and compare them with node A. This is a bit complicated. If there is events.local, we can do it very easily. Should we keep the events.local interface?
Tejun mentioned in his previous email that he prefers the hierarchical one. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YTuX6Cpv1kg+DHmJ@slm.duckdns.org/ (local) I agree with you that it's easier to identify the constraint cgroup with the local file. However, there is one downside also, which is if a cgroup gets deleted then that local information is lost, we will need a hierarchical reporting to observe the resource constraint. I will be fine with both files but if I have to choose one I am now more inclined towards hierarchical (events). Thanks Vipin
