To speed up page cache truncation, lock several pages at once and free them in one go. This allows us to batch radix tree operations in a more efficient way and also save round-trips on mapping->tree_lock. As a result we gain about 20% speed improvement in page cache truncation. Data from a simple benchmark timing 10000 truncates of 1024 pages (on ext4 on ramdisk but the filesystem is barely visible in the profiles). The range shows 1% and 95% percentiles of the measured times: 4.14-rc2 4.14-rc2 + batched truncation 248-256 209-219 249-258 209-217 248-255 211-239 248-255 209-217 247-256 210-218 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171010151937.26984-8-jack@xxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: "Kirill A.
