11 * The 1/4 region under the global dirty thresh is for smooth dirty throttling:
12 *
13 * (thresh - thresh/DIRTY_FULL_SCOPE, thresh)
14 *
ffd1f609
WF
15 * The 1/16 region above the global dirty limit will be put to maximum pauses:
16 *
17 * (limit, limit + limit/DIRTY_MAXPAUSE_AREA)
18 *
19 * The 1/16 region above the max-pause region, dirty exceeded bdi's will be put
20 * to loops:
21 *
22 * (limit + limit/DIRTY_MAXPAUSE_AREA, limit + limit/DIRTY_PASSGOOD_AREA)
23 *
24 * Further beyond, all dirtier tasks will enter a loop waiting (possibly long
25 * time) for the dirty pages to drop, unless written enough pages.
26 *
27 * The global dirty threshold is normally equal to the global dirty limit,
28 * except when the system suddenly allocates a lot of anonymous memory and
29 * knocks down the global dirty threshold quickly, in which case the global
30 * dirty limit will follow down slowly to prevent livelocking all dirtier tasks.
