[patch 3.5-rc3] mm, mempolicy: fix mbind() to do synchronous migration

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

 



If the range passed to mbind() is not allocated on nodes set in the
nodemask, it migrates the pages to respect the constraint.

The final formal of migrate_pages() is a mode of type enum migrate_mode,
not a boolean.  do_mbind() is currently passing "true" which is the
equivalent of MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT.  This should instead be MIGRATE_SYNC
for synchronous page migration.
