From 9c84819bd64ec15cb15d041c45ebe4725e9d4f3b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Roesch Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2022 16:52:08 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: add /sys/class/bdi//min_bytes knob bdi has two existing knobs to limit the amount of dirty memory: min_ratio and max_ratio. However the granularity of the knobs is limited and often it is more convenient to specify limits in terms of bytes. This change adds the min_bytes knob. It does not store the min_bytes value, instead it converts the max_bytes value to a ratio. The value is therefore more an approximation than an absolute value. It also maintains the sum over all the bdi min_ratio values stored in the variable bdi_min_ratio.
