[PATCH v8] mm/page_alloc.c: memory_hotplug: free pages as higher order
From: Arun KS
Date: Wed Jan 09 2019 - 06:13:25 EST
When freeing pages are done with higher order, time spent on coalescing
pages by buddy allocator can be reduced. With section size of 256MB, hot
add latency of a single section shows improvement from 50-60 ms to less
than 1 ms, hence improving the hot add latency by 60 times. Modify
external providers of online callback to align with the change.

Changes since v7:
- Rebased to 5.0-rc1.
- Fixed onlined_pages accounting.
- Added comment for return value of online_page_callback.
- Renamed xen_bring_pgs_online to xen_online_pages.
Changes since v6:
- Rebased to 4.20
- Changelog updated.
- No improvement seen on arm64, hence removed removal of prefetch.
Changes since v5:
- Rebased to 4.20-rc1.
- Changelog updated.
Changes since v4:
- As suggested by Michal Hocko,
- Simplify logic in online_pages_block() by using get_order().
- Seperate out removal of prefetch from __free_pages_core().
Changes since v3:
- Renamed _free_pages_boot_core -> __free_pages_core.
- Removed prefetch from __free_pages_core.
- Removed xen_online_page().
Changes since v2:
- Reuse code from __free_pages_boot_core().
Changes since v1:
- Removed prefetch().
Changes since RFC:
- Rebase.
- As suggested by Michal Hocko remove pages_per_block.
- Modifed external providers of online_page_callback.
