The patch titled Subject: mm, compaction: prevent nr_isolated_* from going negative has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-compaction-skip-blocks-where-isolation-fails-in-async-direct-compaction-fix.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into mm-compaction-skip-blocks-where-isolation-fails-in-async-direct-compaction.patch ------------------------------------------------------ From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, compaction: prevent nr_isolated_* from going negative /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh warns nr_isolated_anon and nr_isolated_file go increasingly negative under compaction: which would add delay when should be none, or no delay when should delay. putback_movable_pages() decrements the NR_ISOLATED counts which acct_isolated() increments, so isolate_migratepages_block() needs to acct before putback in that special case. It's also useful to reset cc->nr_migratepages after putback so we don't needlessly return too early on the COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX check. Also it's easier to track the life of cc->migratepages if we don't assign it to a migratelist variable.
