Subject: [PATCH 14/21] mm: tlb_finish_mmu forget rss
Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2005 17:03:58 +0100 (BST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.61.0509251702010.3490@goblin.wat.veritas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.61.0509251644100.3490@goblin.wat.veritas.com>

zap_pte_range has been counting the pages it frees in tlb->freed, then
tlb_finish_mmu has used that to update the mm's rss.  That got stranger
when I added anon_rss, yet updated it by a different route; and stranger
when rss and anon_rss became mm_counters with special access macros.
And it would no longer be viable if we're relying on page_table_lock to
stabilize the mm_counter, but calling tlb_finish_mmu outside that lock.

Remove the mmu_gather's freed field, let tlb_finish_mmu stick to its own
business, just decrement the rss mm_counter in zap_pte_range (yes, there
was some point to batching the update, and a subsequent patch restores
that).  And forget the anal paranoia of first reading the counter to
avoid going negative - if rss does go negative, just fix that bug.

Remove the mmu_gather's flushes and avoided_flushes from arm and arm26:
no use was being made of them.  But arm26 alone was actually using the
freed, in the way some others use need_flush: give it a need_flush.
arm26 seems to prefer spaces to tabs here: respect that.
