From 202d182a92c60416680e31baa697faa60b0882f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bjorn Steinbrink Date: Mon, 16 May 2005 21:53:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix rss counter being incremented when unmapping MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This patch fixes a bug introduced by the "mm counter operations through macros" patch, which replaced a decrement operation in with an increment macro in try_to_unmap_one().

Of course, we're somewhat lucky in that arithmetic elsewhere in the function guarantees that at least one iteration is made, lest this force larger rearrangements to be made. This issue and patch also apply to non-mm mainline and with trivial adjustments, at least two related kernels. Discovered during internal testing at Oracle.
