Subject: [merged mm-stable] mm-mglru-batch-update-lrugen-nr_pages-in-inc_min_seq.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Tue, 06 Oct 2026 17:52:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261007005249.B9A101F0089C@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm/mglru: batch update lrugen->nr_pages in inc_min_seq()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-mglru-batch-update-lrugen-nr_pages-in-inc_min_seq.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm/mglru: batch update lrugen->nr_pages in inc_min_seq()
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 07:24:16 +0800
Currently, folio_inc_gen() updates lrugen->nr_pages for every folio as it
advances generations. Instead, accumulate the size changes and update
lrugen->nr_pages in a batch after scanning the entire oldest generation,
or when the scan stops because remaining reaches zero.
Since we only move folios from the oldest generation to the second oldest
generation, the active/inactive state cannot change. We can therefore
skip __lru_update_size().
