Subject: [PATCH 7/9] Add balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() to cont_expand_zero()
Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2008 03:13:28 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cef36f873e8480b87c875695.ps@mail.parknet.co.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <dedb5bd83e8480b87c765695.ps@mail.parknet.co.jp>
On the systems, ftruncate() which expand size for FAT became the cause
of OOM. The cont_expand_zero() filled all memory with dirty pages,
and since disk is very slow, limit of page scanning was exceeded, then
it triggered OOM.
This adds balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() to avoid filling memory
with dirty pages.
