From 9a982250f773cc8c76f1eee68a770b7cbf2faf78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2016 16:54:17 -0800 Subject: thp: introduce deferred_split_huge_page() Currently we don't split huge page on partial unmap. It's not an ideal situation. It can lead to memory overhead. Furtunately, we can detect partial unmap on page_remove_rmap(). But we cannot call split_huge_page() from there due to locking context. It's also counterproductive to do directly from munmap() codepath: in many cases we will hit this from exit(2) and splitting the huge page just to free it up in small pages is not what we really want. The patch introduce deferred_split_huge_page() which put the huge page into queue for splitting. The splitting itself will happen when we get memory pressure via shrinker interface. The page will be dropped from list on freeing through compound page destructor. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
