Its filename is mm-allocate-shrinker_map-on-appropriate-numa-node.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-allocate-shrinker_map-on-appropriate-numa-node.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-allocate-shrinker_map-on-appropriate-numa-node.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/memcontrol.c: allocate shrinker_map on appropriate NUMA node The shrinker_map may be touched from any cpu (e.g., a bit there may be set by a task running everywhere) but kswapd is always bound to specific node. So allocate shrinker_map from the related NUMA node to respect its NUMA locality. Also, this follows generic way we use for allocation of memcg's per-node data.
