Subject: shrink_mmap bug in 2.2?
Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2000 18:50:34 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20000614185034.A2505@acs.ucalgary.ca> (raw)
This code looks strange to me (possibly because I don't
understand it):
/*
* Is it a page swap page? If so, we want to
* drop it if it is no longer used, even if it
* were to be marked referenced..
*/
if (PageSwapCache(page)) {
if (referenced && swap_count(page->offset) != 1)
continue;
delete_from_swap_cache(page);
return 1;
}
Can pages be deleted from the swap cache if swap_count is not
one? If not, then I think this code is wrong. It should be:
if (PageSwapCache(page)) {
if (swap_count(page->offset) != 1)
continue;
delete_from_swap_cache(page);
return 1;
}
Thanks in advance for any help.
Neil
