This allows early culling of\n unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to\n page_referenced()/try_to_unmap().

I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable\n flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member]. I\n restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new\n count field.\n\n2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c,\n with internal APIs in mm/internal.h. This is a rework\n of Nick\u0027s original patch to these files, taking into\n account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable\n LRU list.\n\n3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked()\n and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags. Note that the vma\n will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path;\n and then only if the \"cull unevictable pages in fault\n path\" patch is included.\n\n4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page\u0027s rmap and\n ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked.\n Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible. This\n effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links\n as an mlock count. If this mechanism let\u0027s pages in mlocked\n vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don\u0027t know that it\n does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap().

Reworked to\nmaintain \"unevictable\" pages on a separate per-zone LRU list, to \"hide\"\nthem from vmscan.\n\nKosaki Motohiro added the support for the memory controller unevictable\nlru list.\n\nPages on the unevictable list have both PG_unevictable and PG_lru set.\nThus, PG_unevictable is analogous to and mutually exclusive with\nPG_active--it specifies which LRU list the page is on.\n\nThe unevictable infrastructure is enabled by a new mm Kconfig option\n[CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.\n\nA new function \u0027page_evictable(page, vma)\u0027 in vmscan.c tests whether or\nnot a page may be evictable. Subsequent patches will add the various\n!evictable tests. We\u0027ll want to keep these tests light-weight for use in\nshrink_active_list() and, possibly, the fault path.\n\nTo avoid races between tasks putting pages [back] onto an LRU list and\ntasks that might be moving the page from non-evictable to evictable state,\nthe new function \u0027putback_lru_page()\u0027 -- inverse to \u0027isolate_lru_page()\u0027\n-- tests the \"evictability\" of a page after placing it on the LRU, before\ndropping the reference. If the page has become unevictable,\nputback_lru_page() will redo the \u0027putback\u0027, thus moving the page to the\nunevictable list. This way, we avoid \"stranding\" evictable pages on the\nunevictable list.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix fallout from out-of-order merge]\n[riel@redhat.com: fix UNEVICTABLE_LRU and !PROC_PAGE_MONITOR build]\n[nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp: remove redundant mapping check]\n[kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com: unevictable-lru-infrastructure: putback_lru_page()/unevictable page handling rework]\n[kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com: kill unnecessary lock_page() in vmscan.c]\n[kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com: revert migration change of unevictable lru infrastructure]\n[kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com: revert to unevictable-lru-infrastructure-kconfig-fix.patch]\n[kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com: restore patch failure of vmstat-unevictable-and-mlocked-pages-vm-events.patch]\nSigned-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Rik van Riel \u003criel@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro \u003ckosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nDebugged-by: Benjamin Kidwell \u003cbenjkidwell@yahoo.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Daisuke Nishimura \u003cnishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp\u003e\nSigned-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "b2e185384f534781fd22f5ce170b2ad26f97df70", "tree": "3096b8250302c5a9f71b1b5122345f7cf62606cc", "parents": [ "68a22394c286a2daf06ee8d65d8835f738faefa5" ], "author": { "name": "Rik van Riel", "email": "riel@redhat.com", "time": "Sat Oct 18 20:26:30 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Oct 20 08:50:25 2008 -0700" }, "message": "define page_file_cache() function\n\nDefine page_file_cache() function to answer the question:\n\tis page backed by a file?\n\nOriginally part of Rik van Riel\u0027s split-lru patch.

(If the process were later to fault on this\n orphaned entry, it would hit the same BUG from migration_entry_wait.)\n\n This could be fixed by locking anon_vma in copy_one_pte, but we\u0027d rather\n not. There\u0027s no such problem with file pages, because vma_prio_tree_add\n adds child vma after parent vma, and the page table locking at each end is\n enough to serialize. Follow that example with anon_vma: add new vmas to the\n tail instead of the head.\n\n (There\u0027s no corresponding problem when inserting migration entries,\n because a missed pte will leave the page count and mapcount high, which is\n allowed for. And there\u0027s no corresponding problem when migrating via swap,\n because a leftover swap entry will be correctly faulted.

However, the dirty information may be only be contained in the\nptes pointing to the page. We need to first unmap the ptes before checking\nfor PageDirty(). If unmap is successful then the page count of the page\nwill also be decreased so that pageout() works properly.\n\nThis is a fix necessary for 2.6.17. Without this fix we may migrate dirty\npages for filesystems without migration functions. Filesystems may keep\npointers to dirty pages. Migration of dirty pages can result in the\nfilesystem keeping pointers to freed pages.\n\nUnmapping is currently not be separated out from removing all the\nreferences to a page and moving the mapping. Therefore try_to_unmap will\nbe called again in migrate_page() if the writeout is successful. However,\nit wont do anything since the ptes are already removed.\n\nThe coming updates to the page migration code will restructure the code\nso that this is no longer necessary.\n\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "64a3ca5f7ec2606b03be4a65736164a5373732ed", "tree": "a65c1ee2eab32e0ad9571dc5553544ad36d74d77", "parents": [ "91fc8ab3c6312931d64c72845ee2f93a0f87f1a5" ], "author": { "name": "Adrian Bunk", "email": "bunk@stusta.de", "time": "Mon Apr 10 22:53:03 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Tue Apr 11 06:18:33 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] mm/migrate.c: don\u0027t export a static function\n\nEXPORT_SYMBOL\u0027ing of a static function is not a good idea.\n\nSigned-off-by: Adrian Bunk \u003cbunk@stusta.de\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@engr.sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "e23ca00bf1b1c6c0f04702cb4d29e275ab8dc330", "tree": "3cf690fc3305a9af03f42aa25808b713efb53c27", "parents": [ "1e624196f43c3a62122959e15c5f03572cdadb5d" ], "author": { "name": "Christoph Lameter", "email": "clameter@sgi.com", "time": "Mon Apr 10 22:52:57 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Tue Apr 11 06:18:32 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] Some page migration fixups\n\n- Remove sparse comment\n\n- Remove duplicated include\n\n- Return the correct error condition in migrate_page_remove_references().\n\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "b20a35035f983f4ac7e29c4a68f30e43510007e0", "tree": "fdf090ddddbcc275349f62f71adc98649e2c683b", "parents": [ "442295c94bf650221af3ef20fc68fa3e93876818" ], "author": { "name": "Christoph Lameter", "email": "clameter@sgi.com", "time": "Wed Mar 22 00:09:12 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Wed Mar 22 07:54:06 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] page migration reorg\n\nCentralize the page migration functions in anticipation of additional\ntinkering.
