[PATCH v2 3/7] mm/mempolicy: correct putback method for isolate pages if failed

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

 



queue_pages_range() isolates hugetlbfs pages and putback_lru_pages() can't
handle these. We should change it to putback_movable_pages().

Naoya said that it is worth going into stable, because it can break
in-use hugepage list.
