Subject: [PATCH v5 16/19] mm, swap: prepare xswap_unmap_clusters for range shrinking
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2026 13:54:52 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109055455.536925-17-baoquan.he@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109055455.536925-1-baoquan.he@linux.dev>
From: Baoquan He <hebaoquan@kylinos.cn>
Split xswap_unmap_clusters() into a locked helper and a wrapper that
takes xswap_lock. The shrink path already holds xswap_lock and must
call the helper directly.
This is a pure refactor. The existing path already falls back to
bounded batches when the range is too large for vm_area_unmap_pages();
the comments are expanded to explain why, and the cross-reference in
swap_alloc_fast() follows the new name.
