Subject: [merged] mm-vmscan-check-if-kswapd-should-writepage-once-per-pgdat-scan.patch removed from -mm tree To: mgorman@xxxxxxx,Valdis.Kletnieks@xxxxxx,dormando@xxxxxxxxx,hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx,jslaby@xxxxxxx,kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx,mhocko@xxxxxxx,riel@xxxxxxxxxx,zcalusic@xxxxxxxxxxx,mm-commits@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Mon, 08 Jul 2013 12:24:47 -0700 The patch titled Subject: mm: vmscan: check if kswapd should writepage once per pgdat scan has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-vmscan-check-if-kswapd-should-writepage-once-per-pgdat-scan.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm: vmscan: check if kswapd should writepage once per pgdat scan Currently kswapd checks if it should start writepage as it shrinks each zone without taking into consideration if the zone is balanced or not. This is not wrong as such but it does not make much sense either. This patch checks once per pgdat scan if kswapd should be writing pages.
