[PATCH v2 7/7] mm/page_alloc: introduce post allocation processing on page allocator

From: js1304
Date: Wed May 25 2016 - 22:38:28 EST


From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>

This patch is motivated from Hugh and Vlastimil's concern [1].

There are two ways to get freepage from the allocator. One is using
normal memory allocation API and the other is __isolate_free_page() which
is internally used for compaction and pageblock isolation. Later usage is
rather tricky since it doesn't do whole post allocation processing
done by normal API.

One problematic thing I already know is that poisoned page would not be
checked if it is allocated by __isolate_free_page(). Perhaps, there would
be more.

We could add more debug logic for allocated page in the future and this
separation would cause more problem. I'd like to fix this situation
at this time. Solution is simple. This patch commonize some logic
for newly allocated page and uses it on all sites. This will solve
the problem.
