[PATCH] mm: disable numa migration faults for dax vmas

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Mark dax vmas as not migratable to exclude them from task_numa_work().
This is especially relevant for device-dax which wants to ensure
predictable access latency and not incur periodic faults.
