What I've had in mind was to simply walk free lists of the suitable order and call the callback for each one. Something as simple as for (i = 0; i < MAX_NR_ZONES; i++) { struct zone *zone = &pgdat->node_zones[i]; if (!populated_zone(zone)) continue;
Can we directly use for_each_populated_zone(zone) here?
spin_lock_irqsave(&zone->lock, flags); for (order = min_order; order < MAX_ORDER; ++order) {
This appears to be covered by for_each_migratetype_order(order, mt) below.
struct free_area *free_area = &zone->free_area[order]; enum migratetype mt; struct page *page; if (!free_area->nr_pages) continue; for_each_migratetype_order(order, mt) { list_for_each_entry(page, &free_area->free_list[mt], lru) { pfn = page_to_pfn(page); visit(opaque2, prn, 1<<order); } } } spin_unlock_irqrestore(&zone->lock, flags); } [...]
What do you think if we further simply the above implementation like this: for_each_populated_zone(zone) { for_each_migratetype_order_decend(1, order, mt) { spin_lock_irqsave(&zone->lock, flags); list_for_each_entry(page, &zone->free_area[order].free_list[mt], lru) { pfn = page_to_pfn(page); visit(opaque1, pfn, 1 << order); } spin_unlock_irqrestore(&zone->lock, flags); } } Best, Wei -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
