I had been hoping to get this stage, where I think we're still in agreement (except perhaps on the ordering of function arguments!), into 3.5 as a basis for later discussion. But I won't have time to split it into bite-sized pieces for linux-next now before 3.4 goes out, so it sounds like we'll have to drop it this time around. Oh well. Thanks (you and Kame and Michal) for the very quick review of the other, even more trivial, patches. > > Also I want to replace page_cgroup->mem_cgroup pointer with > page_cgroup->lruvec > and rework "surreptitious switching any uncharged page to root" > In my set I have mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() without side-effects and > mem_cgroup_page_lruvec_putback() with can switch page's lruvec, but it not > always moves pages to root: in > putback_inactive_pages()/move_active_pages_to_lru() > we have better candidate for lruvec switching. But those sound like later developments on top of this to me. Hugh -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
