The patch titled kswapd: use reclaim order in background reclaim has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kswapd-use-reclaim-order-in-background-reclaim.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into lumpy-reclaim-v4.patch ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: kswapd: use reclaim order in background reclaim From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> When an allocator has to dip below the low water mark for a zone, kswapd is awoken to start background reclaim. The highest order of these dipping allocations are accumulated on the zone. With this patch kswapd uses this hint to force reclaim at that order via balance_pgdat().
