Revision f3610a6aff7dd70b788364255c0cbc128488ef72 authored by Michal Hocko on 24 June 2016, 21:48:56 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 25 June 2016, 00:23:52 UTC
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. {pte,pmd,pud}_alloc_one{_kernel}, late_pgtable_alloc use PGALLOC_GFP for __get_free_page (aka order-0). pgd_alloc is slightly more complex because it allocates from pgd_cache if PGD_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE and PGD_SIZE depends on the configuration (CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS, PAGE_SHIFT and CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS). As per config PGTABLE_LEVELS int default 2 if ARM64_16K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_36 default 2 if ARM64_64K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_42 default 3 if ARM64_64K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_48 default 3 if ARM64_4K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_39 default 3 if ARM64_16K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_47 default 4 if !ARM64_64K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_48 we should have the following options CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:48 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:4 PAGE_SIZE:4k size:4096 pages:1 CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:48 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:4 PAGE_SIZE:16k size:16 pages:1 CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:48 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:3 PAGE_SIZE:64k size:512 pages:1 CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:47 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:3 PAGE_SIZE:16k size:16384 pages:1 CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:42 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:2 PAGE_SIZE:64k size:65536 pages:1 CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:39 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:3 PAGE_SIZE:4k size:4096 pages:1 CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:36 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:2 PAGE_SIZE:16k size:16384 pages:1 All of them fit into a single page (aka order-0). This means that this flag has never been actually useful here because it has always been used only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.
