However the lru_cache have definitely to be per-node and not global as now
in 2.3.99-pre6 and pre7-1 or you won't be able to do the smart things I
was mentining some day ago in linux-mm with NUMA.
My current tree looks like this:
#define LRU_SWAP_CACHE 0
#define LRU_NORMAL_CACHE 1
#define NR_LRU_CACHE 2
typedef struct lru_cache_s {
struct list_head heads[NR_LRU_CACHE];
unsigned long nr_cache_pages; /* pages in the lrus */
unsigned long nr_map_pages; /* pages temporarly out of the lru */
/* keep lock in a separate cacheline to avoid ping pong in SMP */
spinlock_t lock ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp;
} lru_cache_t;
struct bootmem_data;
typedef struct pglist_data {
int nr_zones;
zone_t node_zones[MAX_NR_ZONES];
gfpmask_zone_t node_gfpmask_zone[NR_GFPINDEX];
lru_cache_t lru_cache;
struct page *node_mem_map;
unsigned long *valid_addr_bitmap;
struct bootmem_data *bdata;
unsigned long node_start_paddr;
unsigned long node_start_mapnr;
unsigned long node_size;
int node_id;
struct pglist_data *node_next;
spinlock_t freelist_lock ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp;
} pg_data_t;
Stay tuned...
