xfs: Timely free truncated dirty pages
Commit99579ccec4
"xfs: skip dirty pages in ->releasepage()" started to skip dirty pages in xfs_vm_releasepage() which also has the effect that if a dirty page is truncated, it does not get freed by block_invalidatepage() and is lingering in LRU list waiting for reclaim. So a simple loop like: while true; do dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=1M count=100 rm file done will keep using more and more memory until we hit low watermarks and start pagecache reclaim which will eventually reclaim also the truncate pages. Keeping these truncated (and thus never usable) pages in memory is just a waste of memory, is unnecessarily stressing page cache reclaim, and reportedly also leads to anonymous mmap(2) returning ENOMEM prematurely. So instead of just skipping dirty pages in xfs_vm_releasepage(), return to old behavior of skipping them only if they have delalloc or unwritten buffers and fix the spurious warnings by warning only if the page is clean.
