Add logic to free up a busy memory range. Freed memory range will be returned to free pool. Add a worker which can be started to select and free some busy memory ranges. Process can also steal one of its busy dax ranges if free range is not available. I will refer it to as direct reclaim. If free range is not available and nothing can't be stolen from same inode, caller waits on a waitq for free range to become available. For reclaiming a range, as of now we need to hold following locks in specified order. down_write(&fi->i_mmap_sem); down_write(&fi->dax->sem); We look for a free range in following order. A. Try to get a free range. B. If not, try direct reclaim. C. If not, wait for a memory range to become free Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Liu Bo <bo.liu@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
