Subject: [patch 04/13] mm: huge_memory: use GFP_TRANSHUGE when charging huge pages
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:40:36 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403124045-24361-5-git-send-email-hannes@cmpxchg.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1403124045-24361-1-git-send-email-hannes@cmpxchg.org>
Transparent huge page charges prefer falling back to regular pages
rather than spending a lot of time in direct reclaim.
Desired reclaim behavior is usually declared in the gfp mask, but THP
charges use GFP_KERNEL and then rely on the fact that OOM is disabled
for THP charges, and that OOM-disabled charges don't retry reclaim.
Needless to say, this is anything but obvious and quite error prone.
Convert THP charges to use GFP_TRANSHUGE instead, which implies
__GFP_NORETRY, to indicate the low-latency requirement.
