Following the design direction communicated here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/b7491378-defd-4f1c-31e2-29e4c77e2d67@amd.com/T/#ma918844aa8a6efe8768fdcda0c6590d5c93850c9 Export a LRU walker for driver shrinker use. The walker initially supports only trylocking, since that's the method used by shrinkes. The walker makes use of scoped_guard() to allow exiting from the LRU walk loop without performing any explicit unlocking or cleanup. v8: - Split out from another patch. - Use a struct for bool arguments to increase readability (Matt Brost). - Unmap user-space cpu-mappings before shrinking pages. - Explain non-fatal error codes (Matt Brost) v10: - Instead of using the existing helper, Wrap the interface inside out and provide a loop to de-midlayer things the LRU iteration (Christian König). - Removing the R-B by Matt Brost since the patch was significantly changed. v11: - Split the patch up to include just the LRU walk helper. v12: - Indent after scoped_guard() (Matt Brost) v15: - Adapt to new definition of scoped_guard() Signed-off-by: Thomas Hellström <thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Matthew Brost <matthew.brost@intel.com> Acked-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Acked-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/intel-xe/20250305092220.123405-5-thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
