mm/compaction: fix 'limit' in fast_isolate_freepages

2021-07-01T03:47:29+00:00

Because of 'min(1, ...)', fast_isolate_freepages set 'limit' to 0 or 1.
This takes away the opportunities of find candinate pages.  So, by making
enough scans available, increases the probability of finding the
appropriate freepage.

Tested it on the thpscale and the results are as follows.

mm: compaction: remove duplicate !list_empty(&sublist) check

2021-07-01T03:47:29+00:00

The list_splice_tail(&sublist, freelist) also do !list_empty(&sublist)
check, so remove the duplicate call.

mm/compaction: use DEVICE_ATTR_WO macro

2021-07-01T03:47:29+00:00

Use DEVICE_ATTR_WO helper instead of plain DEVICE_ATTR, which makes the
code a bit shorter and easier to read.

mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec

2021-06-29T17:53:50+00:00

All the callers of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() just pass page_pgdat(page) as
the 2nd parameter to it (except isolate_migratepages_block()).  But for
isolate_migratepages_block(), the page_pgdat(page) is also equal to the
local variable of @pgdat.  So mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() do not need the
pgdat parameter.  Just remove it to simplify the code.

mm: replace migrate_[prep|finish] with lru_cache_[disable|enable]

2021-05-05T18:27:24+00:00

Currently, migrate_[prep|finish] is merely a wrapper of
lru_cache_[disable|enable].  There is not much to gain from having
additional abstraction.

Use lru_cache_[disable|enable] instead of migrate_[prep|finish], which
would be more descriptive.

note: migrate_prep_local in compaction.c changed into lru_add_drain to
avoid CPU schedule cost with involving many other CPUs to keep old
behavior.
