Hi Andrew, Today's linux-next merge of the akpm tree got a conflict in mm/page_alloc.c between commit c67fe3752abe ("mm: compaction: Abort async compaction if locks are contended or taking too long") from Linus' tree and commit "mm: remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD" from the akpm tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au diff --cc mm/page_alloc.c index 5b3cc33,cefac39..0000000 --- a/mm/page_alloc.c +++ b/mm/page_alloc.c @@@ -2436,11 -2429,10 +2435,10 @@@ rebalance /* * If compaction is deferred for high-order allocations, it is because * sync compaction recently failed.
