[PATCH] kfence: skip __GFP_THISNODE allocations on NUMA systems

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

 



On NUMA systems, __GFP_THISNODE indicates that an allocation _must_ be
on a particular node, and failure to allocate on the desired node will
result in a failed allocation.

Skip __GFP_THISNODE allocations if we are running on a NUMA system,
since KFENCE can't guarantee which node its pool pages are allocated on.
