From 8e1f936b73150f5095448a0fee6d4f30a1f9001d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 04:03:17 -0700 Subject: mm: clean up and kernelify shrinker registration I can never remember what the function to register to receive VM pressure is called. I have to trace down from __alloc_pages() to find it. It's called "set_shrinker()", and it needs Your Help. 1) Don't hide struct shrinker. It contains no magic. 2) Don't allocate "struct shrinker". It's not helpful. 3) Call them "register_shrinker" and "unregister_shrinker". 4) Call the function "shrink" not "shrinker". 5) Reduce the 17 lines of waffly comments to 13, but document it properly.
