I was reviewing this and when I hit the bottom I apparently had the same question other reviewers had wondering if it was intentional.

Then we only are checking this if we failed an allocation. > + > + if (alloced) { Isn't this redundant? In the previous lines you already checked "alloced" was zero before jumping to the label so you shouldn't need a second check as it isn't going to change after we already verified it is non-zero. Also not a fan of the name "alloced". Maybe nr_alloc or something.

Either that or just simplify this and return 1 after the list_add, and return 0 in the default case assuming you didn't allocate a page. > + list_add(&page->lru, alloc_list); > + } > + > + return alloced; > +} > +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(__alloc_pages_bulk_nodemask); > + > /* > * This is the 'heart' of the zoned buddy allocator. > */ > @@ -4981,8 +5097,6 @@ __alloc_pages_nodemask(gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned int order, int preferred_nid, > return NULL; > } > > - gfp_mask &= gfp_allowed_mask; > - alloc_mask = gfp_mask; > if (!prepare_alloc_pages(gfp_mask, order, preferred_nid, nodemask, &ac, &alloc_mask, &alloc_flags)) > return NULL; > > -- > 2.26.2 > >
