Add some comments to explain how zone reclaim works. And it fixes the
following issues:
- PF_SWAPWRITE needs to be set for RECLAIM_SWAP to be able to write
out pages to swap. Currently RECLAIM_SWAP may not do that.
- remove setting nr_reclaimed pages after slab reclaim since the slab shrinking
code does not use that and the nr_reclaimed pages is just right for the
intended follow up action.

Change all the vmscan functions to retunr the number-of-reclaimed pages and
remove scan_conrtol.nr_reclaimed.
Saves ten-odd bytes of text and makes things clearer and more consistent.
The patch also changes the behaviour of zone_reclaim() when it falls back to slab shrinking. Christoph says
"Setting this to one means that we will rescan and shrink the slab for
each allocation if we are out of zone memory and RECLAIM_SLAB is set. Plus
if we do an order 0 allocation we do not go off node as intended.
"We better set this to zero. This means the allocation will go offnode
despite us having potentially freed lots of memory on the zone. Future
allocations can then again be done from this zone."

SLAB_NO_REAP is documented as an option that will cause this slab not to be
reaped under memory pressure. However, that is not what happens. The only
thing that SLAB_NO_REAP controls at the moment is the reclaim of the unused
slab elements that were allocated in batch in cache_reap(). Cache_reap()
is run every few seconds independently of memory pressure.
Could we remove the whole thing? Its only used by three slabs anyways and
I cannot find a reason for having this option.
There is an additional problem with SLAB_NO_REAP. If set then the recovery
of objects from alien caches is switched off. Objects not freed on the
same node where they were initially allocated will only be reused if a
certain amount of objects accumulates from one alien node (not very likely)
or if the cache is explicitly shrunk. (Strangely __cache_shrink does not
check for SLAB_NO_REAP)
Getting rid of SLAB_NO_REAP fixes the problems with alien cache freeing.

The VM has an interesting race where a page refcount can drop to zero, but it

refcount transition when picking up pages from the LRU, and dropping the
refcount in that case.
Instead, use atomic_add_unless to ensure we never pick up a 0 refcount page
from the LRU, thus a 0 refcount page will never have its refcount elevated

Lee Revell reported 28ms latency when process with lots of swapped memory
exits.
2.6.15 introduced a latency regression when unmapping: in accounting the
zap_work latency breaker, pte_none counted 1, pte_present PAGE_SIZE, but a
swap entry counted nothing at all. We think of pages present as the slow
case, but Lee's trace shows that free_swap_and_cache's radix tree lookup
can make a lot of work - and we could have been doing it many thousands of
times without a latency break.
Move the zap_work update up to account swap entries like pages present.
This does account non-linear pte_file entries, and unmap_mapping_range
skipping over swap entries, by the same amount even though they're quick:
but neither of those cases deserves complicating the code (and they're
treated no worse than they were in 2.6.14).

The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote
per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap. For a machines with large number
of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms.
Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays.
This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable.
Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and
the per cpu pages from one remote node. That reduces the time spend in
cache_reap. However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to
completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches. The
time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system. All caches
are drained when they overflow their respective capacity. So the drawback
here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer.
Details:
1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification
of the node to drain of pcp pages.
2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA
that manage a per cpu reap_node counter.
3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node.
For us this seems to be a critical issue. Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms
cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly. F.e. NAS parallel
slows down dramatically. NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor
compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches. It gets down to 5.05 secs with
the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

Change the format of numa_maps to be more compact and contain additional
information that is useful for managing and troubleshooting memory on a
NUMA system. Numa_maps can now also support huge pages.
Fixes:
1. More compact format. Only display fields if they contain additional
information.
2. Always display information for all vmas. The old numa_maps did not display
vma with no mapped entries. This was a bit confusing because page
migration removes ptes for file backed vmas. After page migration
a part of the vmas vanished.
3. Rename maxref to maxmap. This is the maximum mapcount of all the pages
in a vma and may be used as an indicator as to how many processes
may be using a certain vma.
4. Include the ability to scan over huge page vmas.
New items shown:
dirty
Number of pages in a vma that have either the dirty bit set in the
page_struct or in the pte.
file=<filename>
The file backing the pages if any
stack
Stack area
heap
Heap area
huge
Huge page area. The number of pages shows is the number of huge
pages not the regular sized pages.
swapcache

of pages mapped.

I seem to have lost this read_unlock().
While we're there, let's turn that interruptible sleep unto uninterruptible,
so we don't get a busywait if signal_pending(). (Again. We seem to have a
habit of doing this).

Under some circumstances `points' can get printed before it's initialised.

remove_from_swap() currently attempts to use page_lock_anon_vma to obtain
an anon_vma lock. That is not working since the page may have been
remapped via swap ptes in order to move the page.
However, do_migrate_pages() obtain the mmap_sem lock and therefore there is
a guarantee that the anonymous vma will not vanish from under us. There is
therefore no need to use page_lock_anon_vma.

Currently sys_migrate_pages only moves pages belonging to a process. This
is okay when invoked from a regular user. But if invoked from root it
should move all pages as documented in the migrate_pages manpage.

- PF_SWAPWRITE needs to be set for RECLAIM_SWAP to be able to write
out pages to swap. Currently RECLAIM_SWAP may not do that.
- remove setting nr_reclaimed pages after slab reclaim since the slab shrinking
code does not use that and the nr_reclaimed pages is just right for the
intended follow up action.
