[RFC PATCH v2 17/51] mm: hugetlb: Cleanup interpretation of gbl_chg in alloc_hugetlb_folio()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The comment before dequeuing a folio explains that if gbl_chg == 0, a
reservation exists for the allocation.

In addition, if a vma reservation exists, there's no need to get a
reservation from the subpool, and gbl_chg was set to 0.

This patch replaces both of that with code: subpool_reservation_exists
defaults to false, and if a vma reservation does not exist, a
reservation is sought from the subpool.

Then, the existence of a reservation, whether in the vma or subpool,
is summarized into reservation_exists, which is then used to determine
whether to dequeue a folio.
