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

485 config KERNEL_RT_GROUP_SCHED
486 bool "Group scheduling for SCHED_RR/FIFO"
489 This feature lets you explicitly allocate real CPU bandwidth
490 to task groups. If enabled, it will also make it impossible to
491 schedule realtime tasks for non-root users until you allocate
492 realtime bandwidth for them.
496 config KERNEL_BLK_CGROUP
497 bool "Block IO controller"
500 Generic block IO controller cgroup interface. This is the common
501 cgroup interface which should be used by various IO controlling
504 Currently, CFQ IO scheduler uses it to recognize task groups and
505 control disk bandwidth allocation (proportional time slice allocation)
506 to such task groups. It is also used by bio throttling logic in
507 block layer to implement upper limit in IO rates on a device.
509 This option only enables generic Block IO controller infrastructure.
510 One needs to also enable actual IO controlling logic/policy. For
511 enabling proportional weight division of disk bandwidth in CFQ, set
512 CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=y; for enabling throttling policy, set
513 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING=y.

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