similar to: [PATCH v4 00/13] 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

Per Vlastimil's review comment, Vlastimil, I updated based on your comment. Please review this. If everything is done, I will send v7 rebased on recent mmotm.

Recently, I got many reports about perfermance degradation in embedded system(Android mobile phone, webOS TV and so on) and failed to fork easily. The problem was fragmentation caused by zram and GPU driver pages. Their pages cannot be migrated so compaction cannot work well, either so reclaimer ends up shrinking all of working set pages. It made system very slow and even to fail to fork easily.

Might have been better as a separate migration patch and then a compaction patch. It's prefixed mm/compaction, but most changed are in mm/migrate.c On 03/30/2016 09:12 AM, Minchan Kim wrote: > We have allowed migration for only LRU pages until now and it was > enough to make high-order pages.
