mm: rename and change semantics of nr_indirectly_reclaimable_bytes
The vmstat counter NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES was introduced by commit eb59254608bc ("mm: introduce NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES") with the goal of accounting objects that can be reclaimed, but cannot be allocated via a SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT cache. This is now possible via kmalloc() with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE flag, and the dcache external names user is converted. The counter is however still useful for accounting direct page allocations (i.e. not slab) with a shrinker, such as the ION page pool. So keep it, and: - change granularity to pages to be more like other counters; sub-page allocations should be able to use kmalloc - rename the counter to NR_KERNEL_MISC_RECLAIMABLE - expose the counter again in vmstat as "nr_kernel_misc_reclaimable"; we can again remove the check for not printing "hidden" counters Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <[email protected]> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <[email protected]> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <[email protected]> Cc: Vijayanand Jitta <[email protected]> Cc: Laura Abbott <[email protected]> Cc: Sumit Semwal <[email protected]> Cc: David Rientjes <[email protected]> Cc: Johannes Weiner <[email protected]> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <[email protected]> Cc: Mel Gorman <[email protected]> Cc: Michal Hocko <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
