Currently there are two kmem-related helper functions with a confusing semantics: memcg_kmem_enabled() and mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled(). The problem is that an obvious expectation memcg_kmem_enabled() == !mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled(), can be false. mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() is similar to mem_cgroup_disabled(): it returns true only if CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not set or the kmem accounting is disabled using a boot time kernel option "cgroup.memory=nokmem". It never changes the value dynamically. memcg_kmem_enabled() is different: it always returns false until the first non-root memory cgroup will get online (assuming the kernel memory accounting is enabled). It's goal is to improve the performance on systems without the cgroupfs mounted/memory controller enabled or on the systems with only the root memory cgroup. To make things more obvious and avoid potential bugs, let's rename memcg_kmem_enabled() to memcg_kmem_online().

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.
