From af936a1606246a10c145feac3770f6287f483f02 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lee Schermerhorn Date: Sat, 18 Oct 2008 20:26:53 -0700 Subject: vmscan: unevictable LRU scan sysctl This patch adds a function to scan individual or all zones' unevictable lists and move any pages that have become evictable onto the respective zone's inactive list, where shrink_inactive_list() will deal with them. Adds sysctl to scan all nodes, and per node attributes to individual nodes' zones. Kosaki: If evictable page found in unevictable lru when write /proc/sys/vm/scan_unevictable_pages, print filename and file offset of these pages.
