Kernel for Galaxy S24, rebased on CLO sources (WIP)
This patch updates get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated out of CMA region. This makes sure that we don't keep non-movable pages (due to page reference count) in the CMA area. This will be used by ppc64 in a later patch to avoid pinning pages in the CMA region. ppc64 uses CMA region for allocation of the hardware page table (hash page table) and not able to migrate pages out of CMA region results in page table allocation failures. One case where we hit this easy is when a guest using a VFIO passthrough device. VFIO locks all the guest's memory and if the guest memory is backed by CMA region, it becomes unmovable resulting in fragmenting the CMA and possibly preventing other guests from allocation a large enough hash page table. NOTE: We allocate the new page without using __GFP_THISNODE Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190114095438.32470-3-aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Cc: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
