[PATCH 12/34] mm: page-replace-shrink.patch

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Wed Mar 22 2006 - 17:31:29 EST


From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@xxxxxxxxx>

Move the whole per zone shrinker to the policy files.
Share the shrink_list logic across policies since it doesn't know about
the policy internels anymore and exclusively deals with pageout.

API:
void page_replace_shrink(struct zone *, struct scan_control *);

Shrink the specified zone.
