From bfe0857c20c663fcc1592fa4e3a61ca12b07dac9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Usama Arif Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2024 20:26:07 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "mm: skip CMA pages when they are not available" This reverts commit 5da226dbfce3 ("mm: skip CMA pages when they are not available") and b7108d66318a ("Multi-gen LRU: skip CMA pages when they are not eligible"). lruvec->lru_lock is highly contended and is held when calling isolate_lru_folios. If the lru has a large number of CMA folios consecutively, while the allocation type requested is not MIGRATE_MOVABLE, isolate_lru_folios can hold the lock for a very long time while it skips those. For FIO workload, ~150million order=0 folios were skipped to isolate a few ZONE_DMA folios [1]. This can cause lockups [1] and high memory pressure for extended periods of time [2]. Remove skipping CMA for MGLRU as well, as it was introduced in sort_folio for the same resaon as 5da226dbfce3a2f44978c2c7cf88166e69a6788b.
