From 05ff51376f01fd8837946a4f8144a84f6cc71c19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Morton Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 00:08:20 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] vmscan return nr_reclaimed Change all the vmscan functions to retunr the number-of-reclaimed pages and remove scan_conrtol.nr_reclaimed. Saves ten-odd bytes of text and makes things clearer and more consistent. The patch also changes the behaviour of zone_reclaim() when it falls back to slab shrinking. Christoph says "Setting this to one means that we will rescan and shrink the slab for each allocation if we are out of zone memory and RECLAIM_SLAB is set. Plus if we do an order 0 allocation we do not go off node as intended. "We better set this to zero. This means the allocation will go offnode despite us having potentially freed lots of memory on the zone. Future allocations can then again be done from this zone."
