net: Make account struct net to memcg
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The patch adds SLAB_ACCOUNT to flags of net_cachep cache,
which enables accounting of struct net memory to memcg kmem.
Since number of net_namespaces may be significant, user
want to know, how much there were consumed, and control.

Note, that we do not account net_generic to the same memcg,
where net was accounted, moreover, we don't do this at all (*).
We do not want the situation, when single memcg memory deficit
prevents us to register new pernet_operations.

(*)Even despite there is !current process accounting already
available in linux-next. See kmalloc_memcg() there for the details.
