Subject: [PATCH] mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: allow alloc vmemmap pages fallback to other nodes
Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2023 17:31:57 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230906093157.9737-1-yuancan@huawei.com> (raw)
In vmemmap_remap_free(), a new head vmemmap page is allocated to avoid
breaking a contiguous block of struct page memory, however, the allocation
can always fail when the given node is movable node. Remove the
__GFP_THISNODE to help avoid fragmentation.
