Yes. And I think we're still waiting testing feedback from the reporters on mm-oom-prevent-pre-mature-oom-killer-invocation-for-high-order-request.patch? > I guess we will wait for the above patch to get to Linus, revert it in mmotm > and re-apply > mm-compaction-more-reliably-increase-direct-compaction-priority.patch > again, right? I suppose so. We can leave mm-oom-prevent-pre-mature-oom-killer-invocation-for-high-order-request.patch in place in mainline for 4.8 so it can be respectably backported into -stable. And we may as well fold mm-compaction-more-reliably-increase-direct-compaction-priority.patch into the patch which re-adds should_compact_retry()? -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
