From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> warn_alloc is currently used for to report an allocation failure or an allocation stall. We print some details of the allocation request like the gfp mask and the request order. We do not print the allocation nodemask which is important when debugging the reason for the allocation failure as well. We alreaddy print the nodemask in the OOM report. Add nodemask to warn_alloc and print it in warn_alloc as well.
That's helpful, but still IMHO incomplete compared to oom killer, see below.

Yes that's same as oom's dump_header() does it. But what if there's both mempolicy nodemask and cpuset at play? From oom report you'll see that as it also calls cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed(). So could we do that here as well?
