I agree with the idea of dropping drop_slab_node() in shake_page(), hoping that range-based slab shrinker will be implemented in the future. This patch conflicts with the patch https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210817053703.2267588-1-naoya.horiguchi@linux.dev/T/#u which adds another shake_page(), so could you add the following hunk in your patch? diff --git a/mm/memory-failure.c b/mm/memory-failure.c index 64f8ac969544..7dd2ca665866 100644 --- a/mm/memory-failure.c +++ b/mm/memory-failure.c @@ -1198,7 +1198,7 @@ static int get_any_page(struct page *p, unsigned long flags) * page, retry. */ if (pass++ < 3) { - shake_page(p, 1); + shake_page(p); goto try_again; } goto out; Thanks, Naoya Horiguchi
