[PATCH 2/13] Add a bitmap that is used to track flags affecting a block of pages

From: Mel Gorman
Date: Mon Sep 10 2007 - 07:21:16 EST


Subject: Add a bitmap that is used to track flags affecting a block of pages

The grouping pages by mobility patchset needs to track if pages within a block
can be moved or reclaimed so that pages are freed to the appropriate list.
This patch adds a bitmap for flags affecting a whole a pageblock_nr_pages
block of pages.

In non-SPARSEMEM configurations, the bitmap is stored in the struct zone
and allocated during initialisation. SPARSEMEM dynamically allocates the
bitmap in a struct mem_section as required.

Additional credit to Andy Whitcroft who reviewed up an earlier implementation
of the mechanism an suggested how to make it a *lot* cleaner.
