Subject: [PATCH} mm: Merging memory blocks resets mempolicy
Using mbind to change the mempolicy to MPOL_BIND on several adjacent
mmapped blocks
may result in a reset of the mempolicy to MPOL_DEFAULT in vma_adjust.
Test code. Correct result is three lines containing "OK".
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <numaif.h>
#include <errno.h>
/* gcc mbind_test.c -lnuma -o mbind_test -Wall */
#define MAXNODE 4096
void allocate()
{
int ret;
int len;
int policy = -1;
unsigned char *p;
unsigned long mask[MAXNODE] = { 0 };
unsigned long retmask[MAXNODE] = { 0 };
len = getpagesize() * 0x2fc00;
p = mmap(NULL, len, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS,
-1, 0);
if (p == MAP_FAILED)
printf("mbind err: %d\n", errno);
mask[0] = 1;
ret = mbind(p, len, MPOL_BIND, mask, MAXNODE, 0);
if (ret < 0)
printf("mbind err: %d %d\n", ret, errno);
ret = get_mempolicy(&policy, retmask, MAXNODE, p, MPOL_F_ADDR);
if (ret < 0)
printf("get_mempolicy err: %d %d\n", ret, errno);
if (policy == MPOL_BIND)
printf("OK\n");
else
printf("ERROR: policy is %d\n", policy);
}
int main()
{
allocate();
allocate();
allocate();
return 0;
}
