From 5a1c84b404a7176b8b36e2a0041b6f0adb3151a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:47:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: remove reclaim and compaction retry approximations If per-zone LRU accounting is available then there is no point approximating whether reclaim and compaction should retry based on pgdat statistics. This is effectively a revert of "mm, vmstat: remove zone and node double accounting by approximating retries" with the difference that inactive/active stats are still available. This preserves the history of why the approximation was retried and why it had to be reverted to handle OOM kills on 32-bit systems.
