[PATCH v1 7/7] mm/mlock: recharge mlocked pages at culling by vmscan

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

 



If mlock cannot catch page in LRU then it isn't moved into unevictable lru.
These pages are 'culled' by reclaimer and moved into unevictable lru.
It seems pages locked with MLOCK_ONFAULT always go through this path.

Reclaimer calls try_to_unmap for already isolated pages, thus on this path
we could freely change page to owner of any mlock vma we found in rmap.

This patch passes flag TTU_LRU_ISOLATED into try_to_ummap to move pages
in mmlock_vma_page().
