Linux kernel source tree
35e34642b5
Add a shrinker which frees unused slots and may ask the clients to use fewer slots on each session. We keep a global count of the number of freeable slots, which is the sum of one less than the current "target" slots in all sessions in all clients in all net-namespaces. This number is reported by the shrinker. When the shrinker is asked to free some, we call xxx on each session in a round-robin asking each to reduce the slot count by 1. This will reduce the "target" so the number reported by the shrinker will reduce immediately. The memory will only be freed later when the client confirmed that it is no longer needed. We use a global list of sessions and move the "head" to after the last session that we asked to reduce, so the next callback from the shrinker will move on to the next session. This pressure should be applied "evenly" across all sessions over time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
