Subject: [PATCH] swap-prefetch, fix lru_cache_add_tail()
Date: Wed, 17 May 2006 18:54:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1147884867.22400.9.camel@lappy> (raw)
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>
lru_cache_add_tail() uses the inactive per-cpu pagevec. This causes
normal inactive and intactive tail inserts to end up on the wrong end
of the list.
When the pagevec is completed by lru_cache_add_tail() but still contains
normal inactive pages, all pages will be added to the inactive tail and
vice versa.
Also *add_drain*() will always complete to the inactive head.
Add a third per-cpu pagevec to alleviate this problem.
