Subject: [PATCH 7.3.y 1/2] mm/mglru: use explicit tier range in read_ctrl_pos()
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 23:20:16 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111041806.1021595-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107050419-failed-7.3-ca6e32f3f424@kernel.org>
From: Kairui Song <kasong@tencent.com>
[ Upstream commit c1d0e799321c817a22eab2abf2485250cffad7b4 ]
read_ctrl_pos() encodes the tier range in a single "tier" parameter via
"tier % MAX_NR_TIERS" as the start and "min(tier, MAX_NR_TIERS-1)" as the
end. This is hard to follow, maintain, or extend. Tier values 0..3
select a single tier, while tier == MAX_NR_TIERS selects the full range.
Replace it with explicit (tier_min, tier_max) parameters using a closed
[tier_min, tier_max] interval, and add LRU_TIER_MIN and LRU_TIER_MAX for
the tier bounds. The call sites now become self-documenting:
- get_tier_idx: (LRU_TIER_MIN, LRU_TIER_MIN) for the first tier,
(tier, tier) for each subsequent tier
- get_type_to_scan: (LRU_TIER_MIN, LRU_TIER_MAX) for the full range
No functional change.
