So the above should have simply been if (mpol->mode == MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY) { page = dequeue_huge_page_nodemask(h, gfp_mask, nid, nodemask); if (page) goto got_page; /* fallback to all nodes */ nodemask = NULL; } page = dequeue_huge_page_nodemask(h, gfp_mask, nid, nodemask); got_page: if (page ...) > @@ -1883,7 +1893,17 @@ struct page *alloc_buddy_huge_page_with_mpol(struct hstate *h, > nodemask_t *nodemask; > > nid = huge_node(vma, addr, gfp_mask, &mpol, &nodemask); > - page = alloc_surplus_huge_page(h, gfp_mask, nid, nodemask); > + if (mpol->mode != MPOL_BIND && nodemask) { /* AKA MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY */ > + gfp_t gfp_mask1 = gfp_mask | __GFP_NOWARN; > + > + gfp_mask1 &= ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM; > + page = alloc_surplus_huge_page(h, > + gfp_mask1, nid, nodemask); > + if (!page) > + alloc_surplus_huge_page(h, gfp_mask, nid, NULL); > + } else { > + page = alloc_surplus_huge_page(h, gfp_mask, nid, nodemask); > + } And here similar if (mpol->mode == MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY) { page = alloc_surplus_huge_page(h, (gfp_mask | __GFP_NOWARN) & ~(__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM), nodemask); if (page) goto got_page; /* fallback to all nodes */ nodemask = NULL; } page = alloc_surplus_huge_page(h, gfp_mask, nodemask); got_page: > mpol_cond_put(mpol); You can have a dedicated gfp mask here if you prefer of course but I calling out MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY explicitly will make the code easier to read. > return page; -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
