[PATCH] mm/page_alloc: Fix tracepoint mm_page_alloc_zone_locked()

From: Wonhyuk Yang
Date: Wed May 11 2022 - 04:12:25 EST


Currently, trace point mm_page_alloc_zone_locked() doesn't show
correct information.

First, when alloc_flag has ALLOC_HARDER/ALLOC_CMA, page can
be allocated from MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC/MIGRATE_CMA. Nevertheless,
tracepoint use requested migration type not MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC and
MIGRATE_CMA.

Second, after Commit 44042b4498728 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order
pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists") percpu-list can store
high order pages. But trace point determine whether it is a refiil
of percpu-list by comparing requested order and 0.

To handle these problems, use cached migration type by
get_pcppage_migratetype() instead of requested migration type.
Then, make mm_page_alloc_zone_locked() be called only two contexts
(rmqueue_bulk, rmqueue). With a new argument called percpu_refill,
it can show whether it is a refill of percpu-list correctly.
