Hi Michal: We need a API to tell TTM module the system totally has how many swap cache. Then TTM module can use it to restrict how many the swap cache it can use to prevent triggering OOM. For Now we set the threshold of swap size TTM used as 1/2 * total size and leave the rest for others use. But get_nr_swap_pages is the only API we can accessed from other module now. It can't cover the case of the dynamic swap size increment. I mean: user can use "swapon" to enable new swap file or swap disk dynamically or "swapoff" to disable swap space.
