Subject: [PATCH v4 3/3] mm/vmscan: avoid split lazyfree THP during shrink_folio_list()
When the user no longer requires the pages, they would use
madvise(MADV_FREE) to mark the pages as lazy free. Subsequently, they
typically would not re-write to that memory again.
During memory reclaim, if we detect that the large folio and its PMD are
both still marked as clean and there are no unexpected references
(such as GUP), so we can just discard the memory lazily, improving the
efficiency of memory reclamation in this case. On an Intel i5 CPU, reclaiming 1GiB of lazyfree THPs using
mem_cgroup_force_empty() results in the following runtimes in seconds
(shorter is better):
