mm: remove pagevec_lookup_entries

2021-02-26T17:40:59+00:00

pagevec_lookup_entries() is now just a wrapper around find_get_entries()
so remove it and convert all its callers.

mm: add an 'end' parameter to pagevec_lookup_entries

2021-02-26T17:40:59+00:00

Simplifies the callers and uses the existing functionality in
find_get_entries().  We can also drop the final argument of
truncate_exceptional_pvec_entries() and simplify the logic in that
function.

mm: get 7% more pages in a pagevec

2018-02-01T01:18:37+00:00

We don't have to use an entire 'long' for the number of elements in the
pagevec; we know it's a number between 0 and 14 (now 15).  So we can
store it in a char, and then the bool packs next to it and we still have
two or six bytes of padding for more elements in the header.  That gives
us space to cram in an extra page.

mm, pagevec: rename pagevec drained field

2017-11-16T02:21:06+00:00

According to Vlastimil Babka, the drained field in pagevec is
potentially misleading because it might be interpreted as draining this
pagevec instead of the percpu lru pagevecs.  Rename the field for
clarity.

mm, pagevec: remove cold parameter for pagevecs

2017-11-16T02:21:06+00:00

Every pagevec_init user claims the pages being released are hot even in
cases where it is unlikely the pages are hot.  As no one cares about the
hotness of pages being released to the allocator, just ditch the
parameter.

No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal.  The
parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless
parameter copied everywhere.

mm: only drain per-cpu pagevecs once per pagevec usage

2017-11-16T02:21:06+00:00

When a pagevec is initialised on the stack, it is generally used
multiple times over a range of pages, looking up entries and then
releasing them.  On each pagevec_release, the per-cpu deferred LRU
pagevecs are drained on the grounds the page being released may be on
those queues and the pages may be cache hot.  In many cases only the
first drain is necessary as it's unlikely that the range of pages being
walked is racing against LRU addition.  Even if there is such a race,
the impact is marginal where as constantly redraining the lru pagevecs
costs.

This patch ensures that pagevec is only drained once in a given
lifecycle without increasing the cache footprint of the pagevec
structure.  Only sparsetruncate tiny is shown here as large files have
many exceptional entries and calls pagecache_release less frequently.

The impact on bonnie is marginal and within the noise because a
significant percentage of the file being truncated has been reclaimed
and consists of shadow entries which reduce the hotness of the
pagevec_release path.
