From 7efc3b7261030da79001c00d92bc3392fd6c664c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuyi Zhou Date: Wed, 13 Jul 2022 14:20:09 +0800 Subject: mm/compaction: fix set skip in fast_find_migrateblock When we successfully find a pageblock in fast_find_migrateblock(), the block will be set skip-flag through set_pageblock_skip(). However, when entering isolate_migratepages_block(), the whole pageblock will be skipped due to the branch 'if (!valid_page && IS_ALIGNED(low_pfn, pageblock_nr_pages))'. Eventually we will goto isolate_abort and isolate nothing. That makes fast_find_migrateblock useless. In this patch, when we find a suitable pageblock in fast_find_migrateblock, we do noting but let isolate_migratepages_block to set skip flag to the pageblock after scan it. Normally, we would isolate some pages from the fast-find block. I use mmtest/thpscale-madvhugepage test it.
