Let's have a look at the other users in this file:
t460s: ~/git/linux memory_holes $ git grep -C3 adjust_man drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- vb->num_pages += VIRTIO_BALLOON_PAGES_PER_PAGE;
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- if (!virtio_has_feature(vb->vdev,
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM))
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c: adjust_managed_page_count(page, -1);
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- vb->num_pfns += VIRTIO_BALLOON_PAGES_PER_PAGE;
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- }
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c-
--
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- list_for_each_entry_safe(page, next, pages, lru) {
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- if (!virtio_has_feature(vb->vdev,
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM))
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c: adjust_managed_page_count(page, 1);
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- list_del(&page->lru);
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- put_page(page); /* balloon reference */
drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c- }
In case we don't have VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM, we don't touch the managed
page count when inflating/deflating, therefore, there is nothing to do when migrating
a page between zones.
Why? Because the designers of VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM decided to make
it look like the VM has all RAM available (and make it look like it's only
allocated, not "unplugged"). With VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM, the system
will reclaim memory from the balloon when OOM and, therefore, "shrink" the
balloon automatically.
E.g., with VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM neither "MemToal" under
/proc/meminfo, nor the managed page count under /proc/zoneinfo will change.
Without VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM, it will, therefore we have to fixup
only without VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM.
