[RFC PATCH v2 2/3] mm, thp: convert from optimistic swapin collapsing to conservative

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

 



To detect whether khugepaged swapin worthwhile, this patch checks
the amount of young pages. There should be at least half of
HPAGE_PMD_NR to swapin.

Changes in v2:
 - Don't change thp design, only notice amount of young
   pages, if khugepaged needs to swapin (Minchan Kim).
 - Print out count of referenced pages in
   __collapse_huge_page_swapin() (Ebru Akagunduz)
