         call path of swap-in at swapoff is not same as usual swap-in path..

-        For example, test like following is good.

-        # mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o memory
-        # mkdir /cgroup/test
-        # echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
-        # echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
+        For example, test like following is good:
+
+        (Shell-A)::

+                # mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o memory
+                # mkdir /cgroup/test
+                # echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
+                # echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
+
         Run malloc(100M) program under this. You'll see 60M of swaps.
-        (Shell-B)
-        # move all tasks in /cgroup/test to /cgroup
-        # /sbin/swapoff -a
-        # rmdir /cgroup/test
-        # kill malloc task.

+                # rmdir /cgroup/test
+                # kill malloc task.
 
         Of course, tmpfs v.s. swapoff test should be tested, too.
 
- 9.8 OOM-Killer
+9.8 OOM-Killer
+--------------
+
         Out-of-memory caused by memcg's limit will kill tasks under
         the memcg. When hierarchy is used, a task under hierarchy
         will be killed by the kernel.
+
         In this case, panic_on_oom shouldn't be invoked and tasks
         in other groups shouldn't be killed.
 
         It's not difficult to cause OOM under memcg as following.
-        Case A) when you can swapoff
-        #swapoff -a
-        #echo 50M > /memory.limit_in_bytes

 2.7.2 Common use cases
+----------------------
 
 Because the "kmem" counter is fed to the main user counter, kernel memory can
 never be limited completely independently of user memory. Say "U" is the user
 limit, and "K" the kernel limit. There are three possible ways limits can be
 set:
 
-    U != 0, K = unlimited:
+U != 0, K = unlimited:
     This is the standard memcg limitation mechanism already present before kmem
     accounting. Kernel memory is completely ignored.
 
-    U != 0, K < U:
+U != 0, K < U:
