From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>
Hugetlb allocation path for fresh huge pages is unnecessarily complex
and it mixes different interfaces between layers. __alloc_buddy_huge_page
is the central place to perform a new allocation. It checks for the
hugetlb overcommit and then relies on __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page to
invoke the page allocator. This is all good except that
__alloc_buddy_huge_page pushes vma and address down the callchain and
so __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page has to deal with two different
allocation modes - one for memory policy and other node specific (or to
make it more obscure node non-specific) requests. This just screams for a
reorganization.
This patch pulls out all the vma specific handling up to
__alloc_buddy_huge_page_with_mpol where it belongs.
__alloc_buddy_huge_page will get nodemask argument and
__hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page will become a trivial wrapper over the
page allocator.
In short:
__alloc_buddy_huge_page_with_mpol - memory policy handling
__alloc_buddy_huge_page - overcommit handling and accounting
__hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page - page allocator layer
Also note that __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page and its cpuset retry loop
is not really needed because the page allocator already handles the
cpusets update.
Finally __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page had a special case for node
specific allocations (when no policy is applied and there is a node
given). This has relied on __GFP_THISNODE to not fallback to a different
node. alloc_huge_page_node is the only caller which relies on this
behavior. Keep it for now and emulate it by a proper nodemask.
Not only this removes quite some code it also should make those layers
easier to follow and clear wrt responsibilities.
