Normally the pointer to the cgroup to uncharge hangs off the struct page, and gets queried when it's time to free the page. With hugetlb_cgroup reservations, this is not possible. Because it's possible for a page to be reserved by one task and actually faulted in by another task. The best place to put the hugetlb_cgroup pointer to uncharge for reservations is in the resv_map. But, because the resv_map has different semantics for private and shared mappings, the code patch to charge/uncharge shared and private mappings is different. This patch implements charging and uncharging for private mappings. For private mappings, the counter to uncharge is in resv_map->reservation_counter. On initializing the resv_map this is set to NULL. On reservation of a region in private mapping, the tasks hugetlb_cgroup is charged and the hugetlb_cgroup is placed is resv_map->reservation_counter. On hugetlb_vm_op_close, we uncharge resv_map->reservation_counter.

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 Restructured Text 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.
