mm/madvise: add cond_resched() in madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range()
I conducted real-time testing and observed that madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() causes significant latency under memory pressure, which can be effectively reduced by adding cond_resched() within the loop. I tested on the LicheePi 4A board using Cylictest for latency testing and Ftrace for latency tracing. The board uses TH1520 processor and has a memory size of 8GB. The kernel version is 6.5.0 with the PREEMPT_RT patch applied. The script I tested is as follows: echo wakeup_rt > /sys/kernel/tracing/current_tracer echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_max_latency stress-ng --vm 8 --vm-bytes 2G & cyclictest --mlockall --smp --priority=99 --distance=0 --duration=30m echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace The tracing results before modification are as follows: # tracer: wakeup_rt # # wakeup_rt latency trace v1.1.5 on 6.5.0-rt6-r1208-00003-g999d221864bf # -----...
