Subject: [PATCH 3/3] compaction accouting fix
Date: Sun, 13 Nov 2011 01:37:43 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <282a4531f23c5e35cfddf089f93559130b4bb660.1321112552.git.minchan.kim@gmail.com> (raw)

I saw the following accouting of compaction during test of the series.

compact_blocks_moved 251
compact_pages_moved 44

It's very awkward to me although it's possbile because it means we try to compact 251 blocks
but it just migrated 44 pages. As further investigation, I found isolate_migratepages doesn't
isolate any pages but it returns ISOLATE_SUCCESS and then, it just increases compact_blocks_moved
but doesn't increased compact_pages_moved.

This patch makes accouting of compaction works only in case of success of isolation.
