[PATCH] dma-buf: system_heap: avoid reclaim for order 4

From: Jaewon Kim
Date: Tue Jan 17 2023 - 03:25:34 EST


Using order 4 pages would be helpful for many IOMMUs, but it could spend
quite much time in page allocation perspective.

The order 4 allocation with __GFP_RECLAIM may spend much time in
reclaim and compation logic. __GFP_NORETRY also may affect. These cause
unpredictable delay.

To get reasonable allocation speed from dma-buf system heap, use
HIGH_ORDER_GFP for order 4 to avoid reclaim.
