Subject: [PATCH RFC 02/11] mm/migrate: handle retries in migrate_folios_move()
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 10:52:16 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260902-migrate-refactor-shivank-v1-2-9dcca87669c4@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260902-migrate-refactor-shivank-v1-0-9dcca87669c4@amd.com>
After extracting the unmap phase, migrate_pages_batch() still drives the
retry loop for the move phase and passes its retry bookkeeping to
migrate_folios_move(). This splits the move phase across the two
functions and requires several output parameters.
Move the retry loop and its bookkeeping into migrate_folios_move().
The function now takes the number of passes and reports failures through
@nr_failed, matching migrate_folios_unmap().
No functional change is intended.
