[PATCH] mm: page_alloc: avoid wakeup kswapd on the unintended node

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

 



When enter page_alloc slowpath, we wakeup kswapd on every pgdat
according to the zonelist and high_zoneidx. However, this doesn't
take nodemask into account, and could prematurely wakeup kswapd on
some unintended nodes.

This patch uses for_each_zone_zonelist_nodemask() instead of
for_each_zone_zonelist() in wake_all_kswapds() to avoid the above situation.
