[PATCH 2/3] mm, compaction: cover all compaction mode in compact_zone

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Tue Mar 08 2016 - 08:43:15 EST


From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

the compiler is complaining after "mm, compaction: change COMPACT_
constants into enum"

mm/compaction.c: In function âcompact_zoneâ:
mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value âCOMPACT_DEFERREDâ not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
switch (ret) {
^
mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value âCOMPACT_COMPLETEâ not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value âCOMPACT_NO_SUITABLE_PAGEâ not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value âCOMPACT_NOT_SUITABLE_ZONEâ not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value âCOMPACT_CONTENDEDâ not handled in switch [-Wswitch]

compaction_suitable is allowed to return only COMPACT_PARTIAL,
COMPACT_SKIPPED and COMPACT_CONTINUE so other cases are simply
impossible. Put a VM_BUG_ON to catch an impossible return value.
