You haven't finished the 2.4 VM yet. It needs better design description. I've been reading through it lately, and in some parts it is very, very hard to go backwards from the implementation to the designer's intent. Let's take just one line: count = inactive_shortage() + free_shortage(); That expands to, approximately, sometimes: inactive_shortage(): freepages.high + inactive_target - nr_free_pages() - nr_inactive_clean_pages() - nr_inactive_dirty_pages; plus free_shortage(): (freepages.high + inactive_target / 3) - (nr_free_pages() + nr_inactive_clean_pages()) IOW: 2 * freepages.high + 1.33*(min((memory_pressure >> INACTIVE_SHIFT), (num_physpages / 4))) - 2 * nr_free_pages() - 2 * nr_inactive_clean_pages() - nr_inactive_dirty_pages That's not a thing which just leaps out at me and shouts "ah-ha!" :) Across the lifetime of 2.4, other people are going to need to understand this stuff.
