From: Mel Gorman Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 11:03:13 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Allow huge page allocations to use GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23-rc1~758 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=396faf0303d273219db5d7eb4a2879ad977ed185;p=linux-2.6 Allow huge page allocations to use GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE Huge pages are not movable so are not allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE. However, as ZONE_MOVABLE will always have pages that can be migrated or reclaimed, it can be used to satisfy hugepage allocations even when the system has been running a long time. This allows an administrator to resize the hugepage pool at runtime depending on the size of ZONE_MOVABLE. This patch adds a new sysctl called hugepages_treat_as_movable. When a non-zero value is written to it, future allocations for the huge page pool will use ZONE_MOVABLE. Despite huge pages being non-movable, we do not introduce additional external fragmentation of note as huge pages are always the largest contiguous block we care about.
