      Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask" · 356ff8a9
      David Rientjes 提交于
      This reverts commit 89c83fb5.
      
      This should have been done as part of 2f0799a0 ("mm, thp: restore
      node-local hugepage allocations").  The movement of the thp allocation
      policy from alloc_pages_vma() to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() was
      intended to only set __GFP_THISNODE for mempolicies that are not
      MPOL_BIND whereas the revert could set this regardless of mempolicy.
      
      While the check for MPOL_BIND between alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask()
      and alloc_pages_vma() was racy, that has since been removed since the
      revert.  What is left is the possibility to use __GFP_THISNODE in
      policy_node() when it is unexpected because the special handling for
      hugepages in alloc_pages_vma()  was removed as part of the consolidation.
      
      Secondly, prior to 89c83fb5, alloc_pages_vma() implemented a somewhat
      different policy for hugepage allocations, which were allocated through
      alloc_hugepage_vma().  For hugepage allocations, if the allocating
      process's node is in the set of allowed nodes, allocate with
      __GFP_THISNODE for that node (for MPOL_PREFERRED, use that node with
      __GFP_THISNODE instead).  This was changed for shmem_alloc_hugepage() to
      allow fallback to other nodes in 89c83fb5 as it did for new_page() in
      mm/mempolicy.c which is functionally different behavior and removes the
      requirement to only allocate hugepages locally.
      
      So this commit does a full revert of 89c83fb5 instead of the partial
      revert that was done in 2f0799a0.  The result is the same thp
      allocation policy for 4.20 that was in 4.19.
      
      Fixes: 89c83fb5 ("mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask")
      Fixes: 2f0799a0 ("mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations")
