Subject: [PATCH 01/25] mm/fbatch: remove !CONFIG_SMP special case of folio_activate()
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 06:52:41 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3f18ab7d-c12a-d2a3-4d3e-f9908f94f27d@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <14a16945-529b-8bc0-ab38-3ea97e54e223@google.com>

3.0 commit eb709b0d062e ("mm: batch activate_page() to reduce lock
contention") brought in an ifdef CONFIG_SMP around activate batching:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20100805140755.501af8a7.akpm@linux-foundation.org/
shows a sensitivity to bloat that day, not any incompatibility with UP.

No other batching here has a UP alternative, and it's a bit confusing:
simplify mm/folio.c a little by removing it now.

Certainly we can reduce UP bloat (and/or 32-bit bloat) by, say, lowering
FOLIO_BATCH_SIZE from 31: traditionally 16, 14, 15, then raised to 31 by
6.9 commit 9cecde80aae0 ("mm: increase folio batch size"); or by giving
just the static per-cpu folio batches a type of their own with a smaller
array size on UP (1? or a little batching worthwhile even on UP?). But
not right now, it's orthogonal to this series.

And I suspect that the old ifdef led to lru_activate being placed last,
whereas it's usually the second most popular fbatch: move it there, to
match cpu_needs_drain() comment "Check these in order of likelihood that
they're not zero".
