Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] mm: hugetlb: optimize replace_free_hugepage_folios()
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2025 21:19:54 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250918132000.1951232-3-wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250918132000.1951232-1-wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com>
No need to replace free hugepage folios if no free hugetlb folios,
we don't replace gigantic folio, so use isolate_or_dissolve_huge_folio(),
also skip some pfn iterations for compound pages such as THP and
non-compound high order buddy to save time.
A simple test on machine with 116G free memory, allocate 120 * 1G
HugeTLB folios(107 successfully returned),
time echo 120 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages
Before: 0m0.602s
After: 0m0.429s
