[patch 3/9] Guest page hinting: volatile page cache.
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> From: Hubertus Franke <frankeh@watson.ibm.com> From: Himanshu Raj <rhim@cc.gatech.edu> [patch 3/9] Guest page hinting: volatile page cache. A new page state "volatile" is introduced that is used for clean, uptodate page cache pages. The host can choose to discard volatile pages as part of its vmscan operation instead of writing them to the hosts paging device. This greatly reduces the i/o needed...

[PATCH v6 00/12] Support non-lru page migration
Recently, I got many reports about perfermance degradation in embedded system(Android mobile phone, webOS TV and so on) and easy fork fail. The problem was fragmentation caused by zram and GPU driver mainly. With memory pressure, their pages were spread out all of pageblock and it cannot be migrated with current compaction algorithm which supports only LRU pages. In the end, compaction cannot work well so reclaimer shrinks all of working set pages. It made system very slow and even to fail to fork easily which requires order-[2 or 3]...

[RFCv3 0/5] enable migration of driver pages
From: Gioh Kim <gurugio at hanmail.net> Hello, This series try to enable migration of non-LRU pages, such as driver's page. My ARM-based platform occured severe fragmentation problem after long-term (several days) test. Sometimes even order-3 page allocation failed. It has memory size 512MB ~ 1024MB. 30% ~ 40% memory is consumed for graphic processing and 20~30 memory is reserved for zram....

[PATCH v2 14/18] mm/balloon: use general movable page feature into balloon
Now, VM has a feature to migrate non-lru movable pages so balloon doesn't need custom migration hooks in migrate.c and compact.c. Instead, this patch implements page->mapping ->{isolate|migrate|putback} functions. With that, we could remove hooks for ballooning in general migration functions and make balloon compaction simple. Cc: virtuali...

After way to many months here is the fifth version of the guest page hinting patches. Compared to version four a few improvements have been added: - Avoid page_host_discards() calls outside of page-states.h - The discard list is now implemented via the page_free_discarded hook and architecture specific code. - PG_state_change page flag has been replaced with a...
