Subject: [PATCH 0/3] hugetlb: Dynamic pool resize improvements
Date: Mon, 03 Mar 2008 10:06:22 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080303180622.5383.20868.stgit@kernel> (raw)
Andrew, I think these have now been properly vetted. Would you consider them
for -mm please? The first two are bug fixes and should also be considered for
merging into 2.6.25. The third patch can happily wait until the next merge
window.
This series of patches contains fixes for a few issues found with the new
dynamically resizing hugetlb pool while stress testing. The first patch
corrects the page count for surplus huge pages when they are first allocated.
This avoids a BUG when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled. The second patch closes a
difficult to trigger race when setting up a reservation involving surplus pages
which could lead to reservations not being honored. The third patch is a minor
performance optimization in gather_surplus_huge_pages().
These patches were generated against 2.6.24
