[PATCH 2/3] mm/hugetlb: allow migrated hugepage to dissolve when freed

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

 



There is no isolation mechanism for hugepages so a hugepage that
is migrated is returned to its hugepage freelist. This creates
problems for alloc_contig_range() because migrated hugepages can
be allocated as migrate targets for subsequent hugepage migration
attempts.

Even if the migration succeeds the alloc_contig_range() attempt
will fail because test_pages_isolated() will find the now free
hugepages haven't been dissolved.

A subsequent attempt by alloc_contig_range() is necessary for the
isolate_migratepages_range() function to find the freed hugepage
and dissolve it (assuming it has not been reallocated).

A workqueue is introduced to perform the equivalent functionality
of alloc_and_dissolve_huge_page() for a migrated hugepage when it
is freed so that the pages can be released to the isolated page
lists of the buddy allocator allowing the alloc_contig_range()
attempt to succeed.

The HPG_dissolve hugepage flag is introduced to allow tagging
migratable hugepages that should be dissolved when freed.
