Do you have any more detailed information on where the time is spent?
E.g. migration tracepoints?
Hello Michal,
I have the system(vanilla kernel) with 2GB of RAM, reserved 1GB for CMA. No swap or zram.
Sorry, I don't have information where the time is spent.
time is calculated in between cma_alloc call.
I have just cma_alloc trace information/function graph.
