From ae9fed6b601821d70928797c56da0e2008ef840d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Wilson Date: Sat, 7 Aug 2010 11:01:30 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Truncate the shmem backing pages on purge shmfs doesn't actually implement i_ops->truncate() so we were not immedatiately releasing the backing pages when shrinking the gfx cache under OOM. Instead use a combination of truncate_inode_pages() and i_ops->truncate_range() as is used by shmem_delete_inode().
