sed to invoke the shrinkers for each zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes. Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

This means that we can now focus our shrinking effort in a single node, but the work that is deferred from one run to another is kept global at nr_in_batch. Work can be deferred, for instance, during direct reclaim under a GFP_NOFS allocation, where situation, all the filesystem shrinkers will be prevented from running and accumulate in nr_in_batch the amount of work they should have done, but could not. This creates an impedance problem, where upon node pressure, work deferred will accumulate and end up being flushed in other nodes. The problem we describe is particularly harmful in big machines, where many nodes can accumulate at the same time, all adding to the global counter nr_in_batch. As we accumulate more and more, we start to ask for the caches to flush even bigger numbers. The result is that the caches are depleted and do not stabilize. To achieve stable steady state behavior, we need to tackle it differently. In this patch we keep the deferred count per-node, in the new array nr_deferred[] (the name is also a bit more descriptive) and will never accumulate that to other nodes.

To determine the function, a special magical value is passed in a parameter to change the behaviour. This complicates the implementation and return value specification for the different behaviours. Separate the two different behaviours into separate operations, one to return a count of freeable objects in the cache, and another to scan a certain number of objects in the cache for freeing. In defining these new operations, ensure the return values and resultant behaviours are clearly defined and documented. Modify shrink_slab() to use the new API and implement the callouts for all the existing shrinkers.
