Re: [PATCH v8 5/7] mm: Make alloc_contig_range handle free hugetlb pages

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

 



+		if (PageHuge(page) && cc->alloc_contig) {
+			ret = isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page(page);
+
+			/*
+			 * Fail isolation in case isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page()
+			 * reports an error. In case of -ENOMEM, abort right away.
+			 */
+			if (ret < 0) {
+				/*
+				 * Do not report -EBUSY down the chain.
+				 */

Nit: can fit this into a single line.

+				if (ret != -ENOMEM)
+					ret = 0;

Nit: I wonder if ret == -EBUSY would be clearer.

+				low_pfn += (1UL << compound_order(page)) - 1;
+				goto isolate_fail;
+			}
+
+			/*
+			 * Ok, the hugepage was dissolved. Now these pages are
+			 * Buddy and cannot be re-allocated because they are
+			 * isolated. Fall-through as the check below handles
+			 * Buddy pages.
+			 */
+		}
+

[...]

+/*
+ * alloc_and_dissolve_huge_page - Allocate a new page and dissolve the old one
+ * @h: struct hstate old page belongs to
+ * @old_page: Old page to dissolve
+ * Returns 0 on success, otherwise negated error.
+ */
+

nit: remove that line
