From 7364874dc84c3a84bee6345982741550221e4bb6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Prakash Surya Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:25:30 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Adjust arc_p based on "bytes" in arc_shrink In an attempt to prevent arc_c from collapsing "too fast", the arc_shrink() function was updated to take a "bytes" parameter by this change: commit 302f753f1657c05a4287226eeda1f53ae431b8a7 Author: Brian Behlendorf Date: Tue Mar 13 14:29:16 2012 -0700 Integrate ARC more tightly with Linux Unfortunately, that change failed to make a similar change to the way that arc_p was updated. So, there still exists the possibility for arc_p to collapse to near 0 when the kernel start calling the arc's shrinkers. This change attempts to fix this, by decrementing arc_p by the "bytes" parameter in the same way that arc_c is updated. In addition, a minimum value of arc_p is attempted to be maintained, similar to the way a minimum arc_p value is maintained in arc_adapt().
