H A DPageCacheLocker.h40bb94819e6c39d72ab29edc1a0dcd80b15b8b42 Wed Feb 03 18:53:52 UTC 2010 Ingo Weinhold <ingo_weinhold@gmx.de> * Removed useless return parameter from vm_remove_all_page_mappings().
* Added vm_clear_page_mapping_accessed_flags() and
vm_remove_all_page_mappings_if_unaccessed(), which combine the functionality
of vm_test_map_activation(), vm_clear_map_flags(), and
vm_remove_all_page_mappings(), thus saving lots of calls to translation map
methods. The backend is the new method
VMTranslationMap::ClearAccessedAndModified().
* Started to make use of the cached page queue and changed the meaning of the
other non-free queues slightly:
- Active queue: Contains mapped pages that have been used recently.
- Inactive queue: Contains mapped pages that have not been used recently. Also
contains unmapped temporary pages.
- Modified queue: Contains unmapped modified pages.
- Cached queue: Contains unmapped unmodified pages (LRU sorted).
Unless we're actually low on memory and actively do paging, modified and
cached queues only contain non-temporary pages. Cached pages are considered
quasi free. They still belong to a cache, but since they are unmodified and
unmapped, they can be freed immediately. And this is what
vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages() do now when there are no more actually free
pages at hand. Essentially this means that pages storing cached file data,
unless mmap()ped, no longer are considered used and don't contribute to page
pressure. Paging will not happen as long there are enough free + cached pages
available.
* Reimplemented the page daemon. It no longer scans all pages, but instead works
the page queues. As long as the free pages situation is harmless, it only
iterates through the active queue and deactivates pages that have not been
used recently. When paging occurs it additionally scans the inactive queue and
frees pages that have not been used recently.
* Changed the page reservation/allocation interface:
vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages(), vm_page_unreserve_pages(), and
vm_page_allocate_page() now take a vm_page_reservation structure pointer.
The reservation functions initialize the structure -- currently consisting
only of a count member for the number of still reserved pages.
vm_page_allocate_page() decrements the count and vm_page_unreserve_pages()
unreserves the remaining pages (if any). Advantages are that reservation/
unreservation mismatches cannot occur anymore, that vm_page_allocate_page()
can verify that the caller has indeed a reserved page left, and that there's
no unnecessary pressure on the free page pool anymore. The only disadvantage
is that the vm_page_reservation object needs to be passed around a bit.
* Reworked the page reservation implementation:
- Got rid of sSystemReservedPages and sPageDeficit. Instead
sUnreservedFreePages now actually contains the number of free pages that
have not yet been reserved (it cannot become negative anymore) and the new
sUnsatisfiedPageReservations contains the number of pages that are still
needed for reservation.
- Threads waiting for reservations do now add themselves to a waiter queue,
which is ordered by descending priority (VM priority and thread priority).
High priority waiters are served first when pages become available.
Fixes #5328.
* cache_prefetch_vnode(): Would reserve one less page than allocated later, if
the size wasn't page aligned.

unreserves the remaining pages (if any). Advantages are that reservation/
unreservation mismatches cannot occur anymore, that vm_page_allocate_page()
can verify that the caller has indeed a reserved page left, and that there's
no unnecessary pressure on the free page pool anymore. The only disadvantage
is that the vm_page_reservation object needs to be passed around a bit.
* Reworked the page reservation implementation:
- Got rid of sSystemReservedPages and sPageDeficit. Instead
sUnreservedFreePages now actually contains the number of free pages that
have not yet been reserved (it cannot become negative anymore) and the new
sUnsatisfiedPageReservations contains the number of pages that are still
needed for reservation.
- Threads waiting for reservations do now add themselves to a waiter queue,
which is ordered by descending priority (VM priority and thread priority).
High priority waiters are served first when pages become available.
Fixes #5328.
* cache_prefetch_vnode(): Would reserve one less page than allocated later, if
the size wasn't page aligned.

* Added vm_clear_page_mapping_accessed_flags() and
vm_remove_all_page_mappings_if_unaccessed(), which combine the functionality
of vm_test_map_activation(), vm_clear_map_flags(), and
vm_remove_all_page_mappings(), thus saving lots of calls to translation map
methods. The backend is the new method
VMTranslationMap::ClearAccessedAndModified().
* Started to make use of the cached page queue and changed the meaning of the
other non-free queues slightly:
- Active queue: Contains mapped pages that have been used recently.
- Inactive queue: Contains mapped pages that have not been used recently. Also
contains unmapped temporary pages.
- Modified queue: Contains unmapped modified pages.
- Cached queue: Contains unmapped unmodified pages (LRU sorted).
Unless we're actually low on memory and actively do paging, modified and
cached queues only contain non-temporary pages. Cached pages are considered
quasi free. They still belong to a cache, but since they are unmodified and
unmapped, they can be freed immediately. And this is what
vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages() do now when there are no more actually free
pages at hand. Essentially this means that pages storing cached file data,
unless mmap()ped, no longer are considered used and don't contribute to page
pressure. Paging will not happen as long there are enough free + cached pages
available.
* Reimplemented the page daemon. It no longer scans all pages, but instead works
the page queues. As long as the free pages situation is harmless, it only
iterates through the active queue and deactivates pages that have not been
used recently. When paging occurs it additionally scans the inactive queue and
frees pages that have not been used recently.
* Changed the page reservation/allocation interface:
vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages(), vm_page_unreserve_pages(), and
vm_page_allocate_page() now take a vm_page_reservation structure pointer.
The reservation functions initialize the structure -- currently consisting
only of a count member for the number of still reserved pages.
vm_page_allocate_page() decrements the count and vm_page_unreserve_pages()
unreserves the remaining pages (if any). Advantages are that reservation/
unreservation mismatches cannot occur anymore, that vm_page_allocate_page()
