Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Drivers: hv: balloon
Date: Fri,  8 Feb 2013 15:56:45 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1360367805-3451-1-git-send-email-kys@microsoft.com> (raw)

Make furher adjustments to memory pressure reporting and computation.
In the current code, we begin to report pressure soon after the balloon driver
loads and typically report a very low pressure until the system is fully
operational. To avoid having the host take memory balancing decisions on
data that does not fully reflect the memory pressure, delay reporting the
pressure. Additionally, implement a floor for ballooning based on the amount
of memory being managed.

K. Y. Srinivasan (2):
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Add a parameter to delay pressure reporting
  Drivers: hv: balloon: Prevent the host from ballooning the guest too
    low
