There is one interesting case: 1 GiB hugetlb folios can span multiple memory blocks (e.g., 128 MiB). Offlining individual blocks must work.

If you do the folio_get_nontail_page() we'd not be able to offline a memory block in the middle anymore, because we'd never try even isolating it.

Indeed, will test this case.


So likely we have to try getting the head page of a large folio instead (as a fallback if this fails?) and continue from there.

In case of an free hugetlb tail page we would now iterate each individual page instead of simply jumping forward like the old code would have done. I think we want to maintain that behavior as well?

Yes, only can occur when the first hugetlb page if start_pfn is not head page, will reconsider of this part

Can you clarify what "skip free folios" means? For free folios the folio_get_nontail_page() shouldn't have succeeded. Did you mean if the folio got freed in the meantime?

I think we could drop the comments here, the original comment is added
by commit 0c0e61958965 ("memory unplug: page offline"), and there is no
increase the reference to page, but with commit 700c2a46e882 ("mem-
hotplug: call isolate_lru_page with elevated refcount"), the comment
could be dropped since the folio can't be freed here.

              }
