Subject: [PATCH v4 03/14] mm/mglru: relocate the LRU scan batch limit to callers
Date: Tue, 07 Apr 2026 19:57:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260407-mglru-reclaim-v4-3-98cf3dc69519@tencent.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260407-mglru-reclaim-v4-0-98cf3dc69519@tencent.com>

From: Kairui Song <kasong@tencent.com>

Same as active / inactive LRU, MGLRU isolates and scans folios in
batches.  The batch split is done hidden deep in the helper, which
makes the code harder to follow.  The helper's arguments are also
confusing since callers usually request more folios than the batch
size, so the helper almost never processes the full requested amount.

Move the batch splitting into the top loop to make it cleaner, there
should be no behavior change.
