CONFIG_EVICTION_NRU¶
Not Recently Used (NRU) page eviction algorithm
Type: bool
Help¶
This implements a Not Recently Used page eviction algorithm.
A periodic timer will clear the accessed state of all virtual pages.
When a page frame needs to be evicted, the algorithm will prefer to
evict page frames using an ascending order of priority:
- recently accessed, dirty
- recently accessed, clean
- not recently accessed, dirty
- not recently accessed, clean
