Yeah, we still need it, because we might only set memory.min, but not set memory.low. But then the memcg will get excluded as well right? I'm not sure what you mean, could you clarify? :-) The only thing we use memory.min for in this patch is potentially as the protection size, which we then use to determine reclaim pressure. We don't use this information if the cgroup is below memory.min, because you'll never come in here. This is for if you *do* have memory.min or memory.low set and you are *exceeding* it (or we are in low reclaim), in which case we want it (or memory.low if higher) considered as the protection size.

Re: [PATCH REBASED] mm, memcg: Make scan aggression always exclude protection
Andrew Morton writes: Could you please provide more description of the effect this has upon userspace? Preferably in real-world cases. What problems were being observed and how does this improve things? Sure! The previous patch's behaviour isn't so much problematic as it is just not as featureful as it could be. This change doesn't change the experience for the user in the normal case too much. One benefit is that it replaces the (somewhat arbitrary) 100% cutoff with an indefinite slope, which makes it easier to ballpark a memory.low value. As well as this, the old methodology doesn't quite apply generically to machines with varying amounts of physical memory. Let's say we have a top level cgroup, workload.slice, and another top level cgroup, system-management.slice. We want to roughly give 12G to system-management.slice, so on a 32GB machine we set memory.low to 20GB in workload.slice, and on a 64GB machine we set memory.low to 52GB. However, because these are relative amounts to the total machine size, while the amount of memory we want to generally be willing to yield to system.slice is absolute (12G), we end up putting more pressure on system.slice just because we have a larger machine and a larger workload to fill it, which seems fairly unintuitive. With this new behaviour, we don't end up with this unintended side effect.

[PATCH REBASED] mm, memcg: Make scan aggression always exclude protection
This patch is an incremental improvement on the existing memory.{low,min} relative reclaim work to base its scan pressure calculations on how much protection is available compared to the current usage, rather than how much the current usage is over some protection threshold. Previously the way that memory.low protection works is that if you are 50% over a certain baseline, you get 50% of your normal scan pressure. This is certainly better than the previous cliff-edge behaviour, but it can be improved even further by always considering memory under the currently enforced protection threshold to be out of bounds. This means that we can set relatively low memory.low thresholds for variable or bursty workloads while still getting a reasonable level of protection, whereas with the previous version we may still trivially hit the 100% clamp. The previous 100% clamp is also somewhat arbitrary, whereas this one is more concretely based on the currently enforced protection threshold, which is likely easier to reason about. There is also a subtle issue with the way that proportional reclaim worked previously -- it promotes having no memory.low, since it makes pressure higher during low reclaim. This happens because we base our scan pressure modulation on how far memory.current is between memory.min and memory.low, but if memory.low is unset, we only use the overage method. In most cromulent configurations, this then means that we end up with *more* pressure than with no memory.low at all when we're in low reclaim, which is not really very usable or expected. With this patch, memory.low and memory.min affect reclaim pressure in a more understandable and composable way. For example, from a user standpoint, "protected" memory now remains untouchable from a reclaim aggression standpoint, and users can also have more confidence that bursty workloads will still receive some amount of guaranteed protection.
