the isolation is for CMA allocation, so adding CMA_ALLOCATION to isolation
flags to provide the information.

Can we have flags for alloc_contig_range() instead of passing in a (weird) migratetype?

Then, we should make sure that we warn if we try a CMA allocation on any pageblock that is not of type CMA.

Sure. I will expose the existing isolation flags (MEMORY_OFFLINE, REPORT_FAILURE,
and CMA_ALLOCATION) as alloc_contig_range() parameter to replace migratetype one.


Maybe we want some proper, distinct alloc_contig_range() falgs "acr_flags_t". Might be cleanest, to express anything that doesn't fall into the gfp_t flag category.

Exposing MEMORY_OFFLINE feels wrong, for example.


I'm trying to remember what happens if we try offlining a memory region that is of type MIGRATE_CMA right now ... I remember that we fail it. We should make sure that is still the case, otherwise we could seriously break something.

Yes, that fails. That is why I added CMA_ALLOCATION, which is used in
has_unmovable_pages() for this situation.


Ah, okay I stumbled over that but wasn't sure if it gets the job done.

thanks!
