OpenVZ has several parameters for memory management. All of them can be configured independetly.
Patch allow to get configuration of memory from container config and then calculate total usage of memory.
It is open question how to manage memory?
Basically the 'memory' as shown by libvirt should correspond to the 'Total' seen inside the guest when running 'free'. eg # free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 524288 34676 489612 0 0 0 -/+ buffers/cache: 34676 489612 Swap: 0 0 0 In this case 'memory' is 524288 kb. This looks to correspond to OpenVZs 'PRIVVMPAGES' pages parameter.

This is not required. VIR_FREE is happy to accept a NULL and will do nothing. Just call VIR_FREE directly without testing for != NULL.

Summing all the different memory limits together is wrong - this will make it impossible to implement a 'setMemory' operation because you've now no way of deciding which parameter to set. In my testing the total memory inside a OpenVZ container seems to correspond to the 'lockedpages' parameter, so we should just return that value. Since you convert to 'bytes' before converting back into kb, you'll potentially overflow a 'long' on 32-bit platforms. You should use 'unsigned long long' instead to be safe.

Likewise this should simply use the lockedpages parameter I believe. What is the difference between a 'barrier' and a 'limit' in openvz config ? Would it make sense to map 'memory' to the 'barrier' and 'maxmemory' to the 'limit' ?

Can't you use 'vm->vpsid' and avoid the strtoI() call ? It seems it would be more efficient to call openvzReadUbParams() and openvzUb2Memory() & openvzUb2MaxMemory directly, rather than calling out to openvzGetMemory() and openvzGetMaxMemory() since it would avoid reading the config file twice - you can also get the nrVirtCPUs at the same time.
