Since kernel/driver can only use memory from non-movable zone in most cases, normal zone need to increase its watermark to reserve more memory. However, current watermark_scale_factor is used to control all zones at once and can't be set separately. To reserve memory in non-movable zones, the watermark is increased in movable zones as well. Which will lead to inefficient kswapd. To solve this problem, per zone watermark is introduced to tune each zone's watermark separately. This can bring the following advantages: - each zone can set its own watermark which bring flexibility - lead to more efficient kswapd if this watermark is set fine Here is real watermark data in my qemu machine(with THP disabled). With watermark_scale_factor = 10, there is only 1440(772-68+807-71) pages(5.76M) reserved for a system with 96G of memory. However if the watermark is set to 100, the movable zone's watermark increased to 231908(93M), which is too much. This situation is even worse with 32G of normal zone memory and 1T of movable zone memory.
