Making it unsigned causes a bug in __compact_pgdat() when we test: if (cc->order < 0 || !compaction_deferred(zone, cc->order)) compact_zone(zone, cc); Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- mm/compaction.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -puN mm/compaction.c~mm-compaction-make-compact_control-order-signed mm/compaction.c --- a/mm/compaction.c~mm-compaction-make-compact_control-order-signed +++ a/mm/compaction.c @@ -35,7 +35,7 @@ struct compact_control { unsigned long migrate_pfn; /* isolate_migratepages search base */ bool sync; /* Synchronous migration */ - unsigned int order; /* order a direct compactor needs */ + int order; /* order a direct compactor needs */ int migratetype; /* MOVABLE, RECLAIMABLE etc */ struct zone *zone; }; _ Subject: Subject: mm: compaction: make compact_control order signed Patches currently in -mm which might be from dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx are origin.patch linux-next.patch mm-compaction-make-compact_control-order-signed.patch drivers-leds-leds-tca6507c-cleanup-error-handling-in-tca6507_probe.patch sysctl-remove-an-unused-variable.patch sysctl-fix-memset-parameters-in-setup_sysctl_set.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
