The patch titled Subject: mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-compaction-make-isolate_lru_page-filter-aware.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ From: Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware In async mode, compaction doesn't migrate dirty or writeback pages. So, it's meaningless to pick the page and re-add it to lru list. Of course, when we isolate the page in compaction, the page might be dirty or writeback but when we try to migrate the page, the page would be not dirty, writeback. So it could be migrated. But it's very unlikely as isolate and migration cycle is much faster than writeout. So, this patch helps cpu overhead and prevent unnecessary LRU churning.
