Subject: [PATCH 3.17 028/141] mm/page_alloc: add freepage on isolate pageblock to correct buddy list
3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@....com>
commit 51bb1a4093cc68bc16b282548d9cee6104be0ef1 upstream.
In free_pcppages_bulk(), we use cached migratetype of freepage to
determine type of buddy list where freepage will be added. This
information is stored when freepage is added to pcp list, so if
isolation of pageblock of this freepage begins after storing, this
cached information could be stale. In other words, it has original
migratetype rather than MIGRATE_ISOLATE.
There are two problems caused by this stale information.
One is that we can't keep these freepages from being allocated.
Although this pageblock is isolated, freepage will be added to normal
buddy list so that it could be allocated without any restriction. And
the other problem is incorrect freepage accounting. Freepages on
isolate pageblock should not be counted for number of freepage.
Following is the code snippet in free_pcppages_bulk().
/* MIGRATE_MOVABLE list may include MIGRATE_RESERVEs */
__free_one_page(page, page_to_pfn(page), zone, 0, mt);
trace_mm_page_pcpu_drain(page, 0, mt);
if (likely(!is_migrate_isolate_page(page))) {
__mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_PAGES, 1);
if (is_migrate_cma(mt))
__mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES, 1);
}
As you can see above snippet, current code already handle second
problem, incorrect freepage accounting, by re-fetching pageblock
migratetype through is_migrate_isolate_page(page).
But, because this re-fetched information isn't used for
__free_one_page(), first problem would not be solved. This patch try to
solve this situation to re-fetch pageblock migratetype before
__free_one_page() and to use it for __free_one_page().
In addition to move up position of this re-fetch, this patch use
optimization technique, re-fetching migratetype only if there is isolate
pageblock. Pageblock isolation is rare event, so we can avoid
re-fetching in common case with this optimization.
This patch also correct migratetype of the tracepoint output.
