[RFC PATCH 1/2] include/linux/gfp.h: Do not allocate pages on a offlined node

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

 



We shouldn't allocate pages on a unavailable node. Add a check for this
in __alloc_pages_node and return NULL to avoid issues further down the
callchain.

Also update the VM_WARN_ON in __alloc_pages_node which could skip this
warn if the gfp_mask is not GFP_THISNODE.
