Subject: [PATCH] mm, thp: fix leaking mapped pte in __collapse_huge_page_swapin()
Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2016 15:44:36 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1472820276-7831-1-git-send-email-ebru.akagunduz@gmail.com> (raw)
Currently, khugepaged does not let swapin, if there is no
enough young pages in a THP. The problem is when a THP does
not have enough young page, khugepaged leaks mapped ptes.
This patch prohibits leaking mapped ptes.
