Revision b121186ab1b12e2a96a945d88eae0735b4542158 authored by Alex Shi on 21 August 2012, 23:16:08 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 21 August 2012, 23:45:03 UTC
Commit cfd19c5a9ecf ("mm: only set page->pfmemalloc when ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS was used") tried to narrow down page->pfmemalloc setting, but it missed some places the pfmemalloc should be set. So, in __slab_alloc, the unalignment pfmemalloc and ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS cause incorrect deactivate_slab() on our core2 server: 64.73% fio [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock | --- _raw_spin_lock | |---0.34%-- deactivate_slab | __slab_alloc | kmem_cache_alloc | | That causes our fio sync write performance to have a 40% regression. Move the checking in get_page_from_freelist() which resolves this issue.
