Subject: [PATCH 09/12] mm: accumulate sc.nr_scanned/sc.nr_reclaimed
Date: Thu, 01 Dec 2005 18:18:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051201102121.974178000@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20051201101810.837245000@localhost.localdomain

[-- Attachment #1: mm-accumulate-nr-scanned-reclaimed-in-scan-control.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4573 bytes --]

Now that there's no need to keep track of nr_scanned/nr_reclaimed for every
single round of shrink_zone(), remove the total_scanned/total_reclaimed and
let nr_scanned/nr_reclaimed accumulate between rounds.
