For Android-like SOC systems where AP(cpu runs linux) are one of the memory consumers which are composed of other processors such as modem, isp,wcn etc. The reserved memory occupies a certain number of memory(could be 30% of MemTotal) which makes scan reserved pages pointless. > (b) We'll stop scanning early allocations.

If we can surpass these as it exist permanently during life period. Besides, I wonder if PageLRU should also be skipped? - if (page_count(page) == 0) + if (page_count(page) == 0 || PageReserved(page) || PageLRU(page)) > > -- > Thanks, > > David / dhildenb >
