[PATCH 3/7] mm/balloon_compaction: isolate balloon pages without lru_lock

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

 



LRU-lock isn't required for balloon page isolation. This check makes migration
of some ballooned pages mostly impossible because isolate_migratepages_range()
drops LRU lock periodically.
