Subject: [PATCH] mm/page_alloc: add zone to zonelist if populated
Date: Thu,  3 Feb 2022 02:00:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220203020022.3044-1-richard.weiyang@gmail.com> (raw)

During memory hotplug, when online/offline a zone, we need to rebuild
the zonelist for all nodes. Current behavior would lose a valid zone in
zonelist since only pick up managed_zone.

There are two cases for a zone with memory but still !managed.

  * all pages were allocated via memblock
  * all pages were taken by ballooning / virtio-mem

This state maybe temporary, since both of them may release some memory.
Then it end up with a managed zone not in zonelist.

This is introduced in 'commit 6aa303defb74 ("mm, vmscan: only allocate
and reclaim from zones with pages managed by the buddy allocator")'.
This patch restore the behavior.
