vmscan: clip swap_cluster_max in shrink_all_memory()
shrink_inactive_list() scans in sc->swap_cluster_max chunks until it hits
the scan limit it was passed.
shrink_inactive_list()
{
do {
isolate_pages(swap_cluster_max)
shrink_page_list()
} while (nr_scanned < max_scan);
}
This assumes that swap_cluster_max is not bigger than the scan limit
because the latter is checked only after at least one iteration.
In shrink_all_memory() sc->swap_cluster_max is initialized to the overall
reclaim goal in the beginning but not decreased while reclaim is making
progress which leads to subsequent calls to shrink_inactive_list()
reclaiming way too much in the one iteration that is done unconditionally.
Set sc->swap_cluster_max always to the proper goal before doing
shrink_all_zones()
shrink_list()
shrink_inactive_list().
While the current shrink_all_memory() happily reclaims more than actually
requested, this patch fixes it to never exceed the goal:
