Currently the fs sysctl inotify/max_user_instances is used to limit the number of inotify instances on the system. For systems running multiple workloads, the per-user namespace sysctl max_inotify_instances can be used to further partition inotify instances. However there is no easy way to set a sensible system level max limit on inotify instances and further partition it between the workloads. It is much easier to charge the underlying resource (i.e. memory) behind the inotify instances to the memcg of the workload and let their memory limits limit the number of inotify instances they can create. With inotify instances charged to memcg, the admin can simply set max_user_instances to INT_MAX and let the memcg limits of the jobs limit their inotify instances.

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.
