During reclaim, we keep track of pages reclaimed from other means than
LRU-based reclaim through scan_control->reclaim_state->reclaimed_slab,
which we stash a pointer to in current task_struct.
However, we keep track of more than just reclaimed slab pages through
this. We also use it for clean file pages dropped through pruned inodes,
and xfs buffer pages freed. Rename reclaimed_slab to reclaimed, and add
a helper function that wraps updating it through current, so that future
changes to this logic are contained within include/linux/swap.h.

Then, mm_account_reclaimed_pages() -> mm_account_non_lru_reclaimed_pages() Apart from that LGTM. -- Thanks, David / dhildenb

If you think "reclaimed_non_lru" is better, then we can do that. FWIW mm_account_reclaimed_pages() was taken from a suggestion from Dave Chinner. My initial version had a terrible name: report_freed_pages(), so I am happy with whatever you see fit. Should I re-spin for this or can we change it in place? > > -- > Thanks, > > David / dhildenb >

I don't care for the noise all the bikeshed painting has generated for a simple change like this. If it's a fix for a bug, and the naming is good enough, just merge it already, ok? -Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@fromorbit.com

Andrew, could you please replace v4 with this v6 without patch 2 as multiple people pointed out that it is unneeded? Sorry for the hassle. > > -Dave. > -- > Dave Chinner > david@fromorbit.com

I like patch 2! mm.git presently has the v6 series. All of it ;)

Respin would be good, but maybe wait a bit more on other comments. I'm bad at naming things as well :) -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
