[PATCH] mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case -fixes

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

 



Hugh pointed out some issues that needed addressing in the THP native
migration patch

o transhuge isolations should be accounted as HPAGE_PMD_NR, not 1
o the migratepages list is doing nothing and is garbage leftover
  from an attempt to mesh transhuge migration properly with normal
  migration. Looking again now, I think it would trigger errors if list
  debugging was enabled and the THP migration failed. When I had a bunch
  of debugging options set earlier in development, list debugging was not
  one of them. This potentially could take a long time to hit but if you
  see bugs that look like LRU list corruption then this could be it.

Additionally

o Account for transhuage pages that are migrated so we know roughly
  how many MB/sec are being migrated for a given workload.
