Please don't do that. If you on the other hand take snapshots and accumulate them over the whole run, it might actually make sense to move sc->nr_scanned and sc->nr_reclaimed into shrink_results instead. But I'm not sure it's worth the extra snapshotting code, given that we don't actually need the accumulated numbers at the outer levels right now. * sc->swappiness being the recent exception, I'll send a fix for that. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
