Subject: [PATCH] Fix page isolated count mismatch
Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2011 14:08:36 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1307250516-10756-1-git-send-email-minchan.kim@gmail.com> (raw)
If migration is failed, normally we call putback_lru_pages which
decreases NR_ISOLATE_[ANON|FILE].
It means we should increase NR_ISOLATE_[ANON|FILE] before calling
putback_lru_pages. But soft_offline_page dosn't it.
It can make NR_ISOLATE_[ANON|FILE] with negative value and in UP build
, zone_page_state will say huge isolated pages so too_many_isolated
functions be deceived completely. At last, some process stuck in D state
as it expect while loop ending with congestion_wait.
But it's never ending story.
If it is right, it would be -stable stuff.
