Subject: [patch] mm, migrate: increment fail count on ENOMEM
Date: Thu, 19 May 2016 15:11:23 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.10.1605191510230.32658@chino.kir.corp.google.com> (raw)

If page migration fails due to -ENOMEM, nr_failed should still be
incremented for proper statistics.

This was encountered recently when all page migration vmstats showed 0,
and inferred that migrate_pages() was never called, although in reality
the first page migration failed because compaction_alloc() failed to find
a migration target.

This patch increments nr_failed so the vmstat is properly accounted on
ENOMEM.
