mm: per device dirty threshold Scale writeback cache per backing device, proportional to its writeout speed. By decoupling the BDI dirty thresholds a number of problems we currently have will go away, namely: - mutual interference starvation (for any number of BDIs); - deadlocks with stacked BDIs (loop, FUSE and local NFS mounts). It might be that all dirty pages are for a single BDI while other BDIs are idling. By giving each BDI a 'fair' share of the dirty limit, each one can have dirty pages outstanding and make progress. A global threshold also creates a deadlock for stacked BDIs; when A writes to B, and A generates enough dirty pages to get throttled, B will never start writeback until the dirty pages go away. Again, by giving each BDI its own 'independent' dirty limit, this problem is avoided. So the problem is to determine how to distribute the total dirty limit across the BDIs fairly and efficiently. A DBI that has a large dirty limit but does not have any dirty pages outstanding is a waste. What is done is to keep a floating proportion between the DBIs based on writeback completions. This way faster/more active devices get a larger share than slower/idle devices.

* The first three flags control whether dirty pages will contribute to the

* (something that would not, for example, be appropriate for ramfs)
*
* WARNING: these flags are closely related and should not normally be
* used separately. The BDI_CAP_NO_ACCT_AND_WRITEBACK combines these
* three flags into a single convenience macro.
*
* BDI_CAP_NO_ACCT_DIRTY: Dirty pages shouldn't contribute to accounting
* BDI_CAP_NO_WRITEBACK: Don't write pages back
* BDI_CAP_NO_ACCT_WB: Don't automatically account writeback pages
*
* These flags let !MMU mmap() govern direct device mapping vs immediate
* copying more easily for MAP_PRIVATE, especially for ROM filesystems.
*
* BDI_CAP_MAP_COPY: Copy can be mapped (MAP_PRIVATE)
* BDI_CAP_MAP_DIRECT: Can be mapped directly (MAP_SHARED)
* BDI_CAP_READ_MAP: Can be mapped for reading
* BDI_CAP_WRITE_MAP: Can be mapped for writing
* BDI_CAP_EXEC_MAP: Can be mapped for execution
vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.
