374 depends on KERNEL_RESOURCE_COUNTERS
376 Provides a memory resource controller that manages both anonymous
377 memory and page cache. (See Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt)
379 Note that setting this option increases fixed memory overhead
380 associated with each page of memory in the system. By this,
381 20(40)bytes/PAGE_SIZE on 32(64)bit system will be occupied by memory
382 usage tracking struct at boot. Total amount of this is printed out
385 Only enable when you're ok with these trade offs and really
386 sure you need the memory resource controller. Even when you enable
387 this, you can set "cgroup_disable=memory" at your boot option to
388 disable memory resource controller and you can avoid overheads.
389 (and lose benefits of memory resource controller)
391 This config option also selects MM_OWNER config option, which
392 could in turn add some fork/exit overhead.
394 config KERNEL_MEMCG_SWAP
395 bool "Memory Resource Controller Swap Extension"
397 depends on KERNEL_MEMCG
399 Add swap management feature to memory resource controller. When you
400 enable this, you can limit mem+swap usage per cgroup. In other words,
401 when you disable this, memory resource controller has no cares to
402 usage of swap...a process can exhaust all of the swap. This extension
403 is useful when you want to avoid exhaustion swap but this itself
404 adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.
405 Especially if you use 32bit system or small memory system, please
406 be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
407 is disabled by boot option, this will be automatically disabled and
408 there will be no overhead from this. Even when you set this config=y,
409 if boot option "swapaccount=0" is set, swap will not be accounted.
410 Now, memory usage of swap_cgroup is 2 bytes per entry. If swap page
411 size is 4096bytes, 512k per 1Gbytes of swap.
413 config KERNEL_MEMCG_SWAP_ENABLED
414 bool "Memory Resource Controller Swap Extension enabled by default"
416 depends on KERNEL_MEMCG_SWAP
418 Memory Resource Controller Swap Extension comes with its price in
419 a bigger memory consumption. General purpose distribution kernels
420 which want to enable the feature but keep it disabled by default
421 and let the user enable it by swapaccount boot command line
422 parameter should have this option unselected.
423 For those who want to have the feature enabled by default should
424 select this option (if, for some reason, they need to disable it
425 then swapaccount=0 does the trick).
428 config KERNEL_MEMCG_KMEM
429 bool "Memory Resource Controller Kernel Memory accounting (EXPERIMENTAL)"
431 depends on KERNEL_MEMCG
433 The Kernel Memory extension for Memory Resource Controller can limit
434 the amount of memory used by kernel objects in the system. Those are
435 fundamentally different from the entities handled by the standard
436 Memory Controller, which are page-based, and can be swapped. Users of
437 the kmem extension can use it to guarantee that no group of processes
438 will ever exhaust kernel resources alone.

477 config KERNEL_RT_GROUP_SCHED
478 bool "Group scheduling for SCHED_RR/FIFO"
481 This feature lets you explicitly allocate real CPU bandwidth
482 to task groups. If enabled, it will also make it impossible to
483 schedule realtime tasks for non-root users until you allocate
484 realtime bandwidth for them.

489 bool "Block IO controller"
492 Generic block IO controller cgroup interface. This is the common
493 cgroup interface which should be used by various IO controlling
496 Currently, CFQ IO scheduler uses it to recognize task groups and
497 control disk bandwidth allocation (proportional time slice allocation)
498 to such task groups. It is also used by bio throttling logic in
499 block layer to implement upper limit in IO rates on a device.
501 This option only enables generic Block IO controller infrastructure.
502 One needs to also enable actual IO controlling logic/policy. For
503 enabling proportional weight division of disk bandwidth in CFQ, set

594 bool "POSIX Message Queues"
597 POSIX variant of message queues is a part of IPC. In POSIX message
598 queues every message has a priority which decides about succession
599 of receiving it by a process. If you want to compile and run
600 programs written e.g. for Solaris with use of its POSIX message
601 queues (functions mq_*) say Y here.
603 POSIX message queues are visible as a filesystem called 'mqueue'
604 and can be mounted somewhere if you want to do filesystem
605 operations on message queues.
