    Subject[PATCH] vm: page-replace and clockpro
    Date
    Hi All,

    These two patch sets implement a new page replacement algorithm based on
    CLOCK-Pro.

    The first patch set: page-replace-*, abstracts the current page replace code
    and moves it to its own file: mm/page_replace.c.

    The second patch set: clockpro-*, then implements a new replace algorithm by
    reimplementing the hooks introduced in the previous set.


    Andrew, Nick, the kswapd-incmin patch is there again ;-)
    I know there is still some disagreement on this patch, however without
    it reclaim truely sucks rock with this code.
    What happens is that zone_dma is severly overscanned and the clockpro
    implementation cannot handle this nicely.
