Subject: [PATCH] mm:vmscan: fix extra adjustment for lruvec's nonresident_age in case of reactivation
Date: Sun, 19 Sep 2021 23:25:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <TYCP286MB1108D012DA436CA72029ACA7C5DF9@TYCP286MB1108.JPNP286.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM> (raw)

Before commit #31d8fcac, VM didn't increase nonresident_age (AKA inactive age for
file pages) in shrink_page_list. When putback_inactive_pages was converged with
move_pages_to_lru, both shrink_active_list and shrink_page_list use the same
function to handle move pages to the appropriate lru under lru lock's protection.

At those day, VM didn't increase nonresident_age for second chance promotion.
Commit #31d8fcac fix the problem. Definitely, we should account the activation
for second chance. But move_pages_to_lru is used in reactivation in active lru
as well for protecting code section. So I suggest to add another variable to
tell whether reactivation or not.
