Subject: [PATCH] i915: slab shrinker have to return -1 if it can't shrink any objects
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2011 17:03:22 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E0444CA.3080407@jp.fujitsu.com> (raw)

Now, i915_gem_inactive_shrink() should return -1 instead of 0 if it
can't take a lock. Otherwise, vmscan is getting a lot of confusing
because vmscan can't distinguish "can't take a lock temporary" and
"we've shrank all of i915 objects".

I've found this issue by reviewing. I hope i915 developers confirm this.
Thx.
