[PATCH v1 7/8] Make drop_caches flush pending dput()s and iput()s

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When doing echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches, we wish to free up as much inode
and dentry slab as possible.  This path is updated to flush any pending iputs
and dputs once the shrinkers are called.
