Message-Id: <1321635524-8586-3-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de> Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:58:41 +0000 From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@...e.de> To: Linux-MM <linux-mm@...ck.org> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@...hat.com>, Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@...il.com>, Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>, Andy Isaacson <adi@...apodia.org>, Johannes Weiner <jweiner@...hat.com>, Mel Gorman <mgorman@...e.de>, LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATCH 2/5] mm: compaction: Use synchronous compaction for /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory When asynchronous compaction was introduced, the /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory handler should have been updated to always use synchronous compaction. This did not happen so this patch addresses it. The assumption is if a user writes to /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory, they are willing for that process to stall.
