Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2009 10:58:34 +0900 (JST) From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@...fujitsu.com> To: LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: kosaki.motohiro@...fujitsu.com, linux-mm <linux-mm@...ck.org>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>, Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@...il.com>, Rik van Riel <riel@...hat.com>, "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rjw@...k.pl> Subject: [PATCH 1/5] vmscan: separate sc.swap_cluster_max and sc.nr_max_reclaim Currently, sc.scap_cluster_max has double meanings. 1) reclaim batch size as isolate_lru_pages()'s argument 2) reclaim baling out thresolds The two meanings pretty unrelated. Thus, Let's separate it. this patch doesn't change any behavior.
