Description
Under cgroups,
availablecounted the whole inactive file cache as free. Right after an unsynced write, that cache holds dirty and writeback pages. The kernel cannot drop them until they reach the disk. A process that sized its allocations fromavailablealone could therefore be OOM-killed.Changed:
total_*keys.usedrises andavailablefalls while writes are unflushed. Both return as the data reaches the disk.memory.statis parsed once per level, after the usage.Added:
Description.raw_memory_unflushed_cache: the pages waiting to be written to disk at the level that setavailable.Nonewhere the kernel does not report them and on Windows.Windows job objects are unaffected.
