[PATCH 12/12] mm: compaction: make sure highest is above the min_pfn

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

 



It's not guaranteed that highest will be above the min_pfn. If highest is
below the min_pfn, migrate_pfn and free_pfn can meet prematurely and lead
to some useless work. Make sure highest is above min_pfn to avoid making
a futile effort.
