This patch adds file/anon filter bits into isolate_mode_t,
this allows to simplify checks in __isolate_lru_page().

Hmm.. I like idea but..

Isn't this complicated ?

But it doesn't blows my mind as old code does =)

Maybe someone can propose more clear variant?


switch (mode& (ISOLATE_ACTIVE | ISOLATE_INACTIVE)) {
case ISOLATE_ACTIVE :
if (!PageActive(page))
return ret;
case ISOLATE_INACTIVE :
if (PageActive(page))
return ret;
default:
break;
}
}

?

Thanks. It is more optimal and looks more simple. but you lost one "break"


Thanks,

ditto.

Where is simple ?
