      [PATCH] vm: add per-zone writeout counter · e129b5c2
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      The VM is supposed to minimise the number of pages which get written off the
LRU (for IO scheduling efficiency, and for high reclaim-success rates).  But
we don't actually have a clear way of showing how true this is.

So add `nr_vmscan_write' to /proc/vmstat and /proc/zoneinfo - the number of
pages which have been written by the vm scanner in this zone and globally.

      [PATCH] ZVC/zone_reclaim: Leave 1% of unmapped pagecache pages for file I/O · 9614634f
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      It turns out that it is advantageous to leave a small portion of unmapped file
backed pages if all of a zone's pages (or almost all pages) are allocated and
so the page allocator has to go off-node.

This allows recently used file I/O buffers to stay on the node and
reduces the times that zone reclaim is invoked if file I/O occurs
when we run out of memory in a zone.

The problem is that zone reclaim runs too frequently when the page cache is
used for file I/O (read write and therefore unmapped pages!) alone and we have
almost all pages of the zone allocated.  Zone reclaim may remove 32 unmapped
pages.  File I/O will use these pages for the next read/write requests and the
unmapped pages increase.  After the zone has filled up again zone reclaim will
remove it again after only 32 pages.  This cycle is too inefficient and there
are potentially too many zone reclaim cycles.

With the 1% boundary we may still remove all unmapped pages for file I/O in
zone reclaim pass.  However.  it will take a large number of read and writes
to get back to 1% again where we trigger zone reclaim again.

The zone reclaim 2.6.16/17 does not show this behavior because we have a 30
second timeout.

      [PATCH] initialise total_memory() earlier · bd1e22b8
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      Initialise total_memory earlier in boot.  Because if for some reason we run
page reclaim early in boot, we don't want total_memory to be zero when we use
it as a divisor.

And rename total_memory to vm_total_pages to avoid naming clashes with
architectures.

      [PATCH] More page migration: use migration entries for file pages · 04e62a29
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      This implements the use of migration entries to preserve ptes of file backed
pages during migration.  Processes can therefore be migrated back and forth
without loosing their connection to pagecache pages.

Note that we implement the migration entries only for linear mappings.
Nonlinear mappings still require the unmapping of the ptes for migration.

And another writepage() ugliness shows up.  writepage() can drop the page
lock.  Therefore we have to remove migration ptes before calling writepages()
in order to avoid having migration entries point to unlocked pages.

      [PATCH] writeback: fix range handling · 111ebb6e
      由 OGAWA Hirofumi 提交于 
      When a writeback_control's `start' and `end' fields are used to
indicate a one-byte-range starting at file offset zero, the required
values of .start=0,.end=0 mean that the ->writepages() implementation
has no way of telling that it is being asked to perform a range
request.  Because we're currently overloading (start == 0 && end == 0)
to mean "this is not a write-a-range request".

To make all this sane, the patch changes range of writeback_control.

So caller does: If it is calling ->writepages() to write pages, it
sets range (range_start/end or range_cyclic) always.

And if range_cyclic is true, ->writepages() thinks the range is
cyclic, otherwise it just uses range_start and range_end.

This patch does,

    - Add LLONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN, ULLONG_MAX to include/linux/kernel.h
      -1 is usually ok for range_end (type is long long). But, if someone did,

		range_end += val;		range_end is "val - 1"
		u64val = range_end >> bits;	u64val is "~(0ULL)"

      or something, they are wrong. So, this adds LLONG_MAX to avoid nasty
      things, and uses LLONG_MAX for range_end.

    - All callers of ->writepages() sets range_start/end or range_cyclic.

    - Fix updates of ->writeback_index. It seems already bit strange.
      If it starts at 0 and ended by check of nr_to_write, this last
      index may reduce chance to scan end of file.  So, this updates
      ->writeback_index only if range_cyclic is true or whole-file is
      scanned.

      [PATCH] swsusp: rework memory shrinker · d6277db4
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Rework the swsusp's memory shrinker in the following way:

- Simplify balance_pgdat() by removing all of the swsusp-related code
  from it.

- Make shrink_all_memory() use shrink_slab() and a new function
  shrink_all_zones() which calls shrink_active_list() and
  shrink_inactive_list() directly for each zone in a way that's optimized
  for suspend.

In shrink_all_memory() we try to free exactly as many pages as the caller
asks for, preferably in one shot, starting from easier targets.   If slab
caches are huge, they are most likely to have enough pages to reclaim.
 The inactive lists are next (the zones with more inactive pages go first)
etc.

Each time shrink_all_memory() attempts to shrink the active and inactive
lists for each zone in 5 passes.   In the first pass, only the inactive
lists are taken into consideration.   In the next two passes the active
lists are also shrunk, but mapped pages are not reclaimed.   In the last
two passes the active and inactive lists are shrunk and mapped pages are
reclaimed as well.  The aim of this is to alter the reclaim logic to choose
the best pages to keep on resume and improve the responsiveness of the
resumed system.

      [PATCH] find_task_by_pid() needs tasklist_lock · 05eeae20
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      A couple of places are forgetting to take it.

The kswapd case is probably unimportant.  keventd_create_kthread() was racy.

The whole thing is a bit flakey: you start a kernel thread, get its pid from
kernel_thread() then look up its task_struct.

a) It assumes that pid recycling takes a "long" time.

b) We get a task_struct but no reference was taken on it.  The owner of the
   kswapd and kthread task_struct*'s must assume that the new thread won't
   exit unexpectedly.  Because if it does, they're left holding dead memory
   and any attempt to control or stop that task will crash.
