commit e815af95 ("change all_unreclaimable zone member to flags") changed all_unreclaimable member to bit flag. But it had an undesireble side effect. free_one_page() is one of most hot path in linux kernel and increasing atomic ops in it can reduce kernel performance a bit. Thus, this patch revert such commit partially. at least all_unreclaimable shouldn't share memory word with other zone flags.

free_hot_page() is just a wrapper around free_hot_cold_page() with parameter 'cold = 0'. After adding a clear comment for free_hot_cold_page(), it is reasonable to remove a level of call.

Move a call of trace_mm_page_free_direct() from free_hot_page() to free_hot_cold_page(). It is clearer and close to kmemcheck_free_shadow(), as it is done in function __free_pages_ok().

Commit cf40bd16 ("lockdep: annotate reclaim context") introduced reclaim context annotation. But it didn't annotate zone reclaim. This patch do it. The point is, commit cf40bd16 annotate __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim but zone-reclaim doesn't use __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim. current call graph is __alloc_pages_nodemask get_page_from_freelist zone_reclaim() __alloc_pages_slowpath __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim try_to_free_pages Actually, if zone_reclaim_mode=1, VM never call __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim in usual VM pressure.

Kswapd checks that zone has sufficient pages free via zone_watermark_ok(). If any zone doesn't have enough pages, we set all_zones_ok to zero. !all_zone_ok makes kswapd retry rather than sleeping. I think the watermark check before shrink_zone() is pointless. Only after kswapd has tried to shrink the zone is the check meaningful. Move the check to after the call to shrink_zone().

A frequent questions from users about memory management is what numbers of swap ents are user for processes. And this information will give some hints to oom-killer. Besides we can count the number of swapents per a process by scanning /proc/<pid>/smaps, this is very slow and not good for usual process information handler which works like 'ps' or 'top'. (ps or top is now enough slow..) This patch adds a counter of swapents to mm_counter and update is at each swap events. Information is exported via /proc/<pid>/status file as [kamezawa@bluextal memory]$ cat /proc/self/status Name: cat State: R (running) Tgid: 2910 Pid: 2910 PPid: 2823 TracerPid: 0 Uid: 500 500 500 500 Gid: 500 500 500 500 FDSize: 256 Groups: 500 VmPeak: 82696 kB VmSize: 82696 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 432 kB VmRSS: 432 kB VmData: 172 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 48 kB VmLib: 1568 kB VmPTE: 40 kB VmSwap: 0 kB <=============== this.

Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path. This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter. RSS value will be counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at events. Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault. Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls. rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows [before] 4.5 cache-miss/faults [after] 4.0 cache-miss/faults Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

Rename for_each_bit to for_each_set_bit in the kernel source tree. To permit for_each_clear_bit(), should that ever be added. The patch includes a macro to map the old for_each_bit() onto the new for_each_set_bit(). This is a (very) temporary thing to ease the migration.

Now that we have correct COMMIT semantics in writeback_single_inode, we can reduce and simplify nfs_wb_all(). Also replace nfs_wb_nocommit() with a call to filemap_write_and_wait(), which doesn't need to hold the inode->i_mutex. With that done, we can eliminate nfs_write_mapping() altogether.
