The original of this patch [1] is used to fix the issue in Joonsoo's CMA patch "CMA: always treat free cma pages as non-free on watermark checking" [2]. Joonsoo reminded me that this issue affect current kernel too. So made a new one for upstream. Function __zone_watermark_ok substruct CMA pages number from free_pages if system allocation can't use CMA areas: /* If allocation can't use CMA areas don't use free CMA pages */ if (!(alloc_flags & ALLOC_CMA)) free_cma = zone_page_state(z, NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES); But after this part of code for (o = 0; o < order; o++) { /* At the next order, this order's pages become unavailable */ free_pages -= z->free_area[o].nr_free << o; CMA memory in each order is part of z->free_area[o].nr_free, then the CMA page number of this order is substructed twice. This bug will make __zone_watermark_ok return more false. This patch add cma_free_area to struct free_area that just record the number of CMA pages. And add it back in the order loop to handle the substruct twice issue.
