+ memory.reclaim
+ A write-only nested-keyed file which exists for all cgroups.
+
+ This is a simple interface to trigger memory reclaim in the
+ target cgroup.
+
+ This file accepts a single key, the number of bytes to reclaim.
+ No nested keys are currently supported.
+
+ Example::
+
+ echo "1G" > memory.reclaim
+
+ The interface can be later extended with nested keys to
+ configure the reclaim behavior. For example, specify the
+ type of memory to reclaim from (anon, file, ..).
+
+ Please note that the kernel can over or under reclaim from
+ the target cgroup. If less bytes are reclaimed than the
+ specified amount, -EAGAIN is returned.
