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

 



The patch titled
     Subject: mm, compaction: distinguish contended status in tracepoints
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-compaction-disginguish-contended-status-in-tracepoints.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm, compaction: distinguish contended status in tracepoints

Compaction returns prematurely with COMPACT_PARTIAL when contended or has
fatal signal pending.  This is ok for the callers, but might be misleading
in the traces, as the usual reason to return COMPACT_PARTIAL is that we
think the allocation should succeed.  After this patch we distinguish the
premature ending condition in the mm_compaction_finished and
mm_compaction_end tracepoints.

The contended status covers the following reasons:
- lock contention or need_resched() detected in async compaction
- fatal signal pending
- too many pages isolated in the zone (only for async compaction)
Further distinguishing the exact reason seems unnecessary for now.
