Subject: [PATCH 0/6] vmw_balloon: 64-bit limit support, compaction, shrinker
Date: Wed, 6 Feb 2019 15:57:00 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190206235706.4851-1-namit@vmware.com> (raw)

Various enhancements for VMware balloon, some of which are remainder
from a previous patch-set.

Patch 1: Drop the version number
Patch 2: Adds support for 64-bit memory limit
Patches 3-4: Support for compaction
Patch 5: Support for memory shrinker - disabled by default
Patch 6: Split refused pages to improve performance

This is sort of a resend, since patches 2-6 have not been sent (the mail
server rejected since Xavier, whose email address was deactivated, was
mistakenly cc'd). Patch 1 was changed according to Greg's feedback.
