      shrinker: add node awareness · 0ce3d744
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Pass the node of the current zone being reclaimed to shrink_slab(),
      allowing the shrinker control nodemask to be set appropriately for node
      aware shrinkers.

      mm: new shrinker API · 24f7c6b9
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      The current shrinker callout API uses an a single shrinker call for
      multiple functions.  To determine the function, a special magical value is
      passed in a parameter to change the behaviour.  This complicates the
      implementation and return value specification for the different
      behaviours.
      
      Separate the two different behaviours into separate operations, one to
      return a count of freeable objects in the cache, and another to scan a
      certain number of objects in the cache for freeing.  In defining these new
      operations, ensure the return values and resultant behaviours are clearly
      defined and documented.
      
      Modify shrink_slab() to use the new API and implement the callouts for all
      the existing shrinkers.

      superblock: introduce per-sb cache shrinker infrastructure · b0d40c92
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      With context based shrinkers, we can implement a per-superblock
      shrinker that shrinks the caches attached to the superblock. We
      currently have global shrinkers for the inode and dentry caches that
      split up into per-superblock operations via a coarse proportioning
      method that does not batch very well.  The global shrinkers also
      have a dependency - dentries pin inodes - so we have to be very
      careful about how we register the global shrinkers so that the
      implicit call order is always correct.
      
      With a per-sb shrinker callout, we can encode this dependency
      directly into the per-sb shrinker, hence avoiding the need for
      strictly ordering shrinker registrations. We also have no need for
      any proportioning code for the shrinker subsystem already provides
      this functionality across all shrinkers. Allowing the shrinker to
      operate on a single superblock at a time means that we do less
      superblock list traversals and locking and reclaim should batch more
      effectively. This should result in less CPU overhead for reclaim and
      potentially faster reclaim of items from each filesystem.
