Ok here is a kind of directed memory reclaim for swsusp which is different to
ordinary memory reclaim. It reclaims memory in up to 4 passes with just
shrink_zone, without hooking into balance_pgdat thereby simplifying that
function as well.
The passes are as follows:
Reclaim from inactive_list only
Reclaim from active list but don't reclaim mapped
2nd pass of type 2
Reclaim mapped
and it replaces the current shrink_all_memory() function in situ, being passed
exactly the number of pages desired to be freed rather than doing it in
little chunks. This allows the memory reclaiming code to decide how
aggressively to delete pages on a per zone basis. This should leave slightly
more ram intact and should bias the pages stored in ram better based on
current active referenced->active not referenced->inactive lru. This should
improve the state of the vm immediately after resume.
Works for me. Please feel free to test and comment. Patch for 2.6.16-rc6-mm1.
Cheers,
Con
