From c3114a84f7f96c9d5c73c8bfa7e21ff42fda97e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anshuman Khandual Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2017 15:47:41 -0700 Subject: mm: hugetlb: soft-offline: dissolve source hugepage after successful migration Currently hugepage migrated by soft-offline (i.e. due to correctable memory errors) is contained as a hugepage, which means many non-error pages in it are unreusable, i.e. wasted. This patch solves this issue by dissolving source hugepages into buddy. As done in previous patch, PageHWPoison is set only on a head page of the error hugepage. Then in dissoliving we move the PageHWPoison flag to the raw error page so that all healthy subpages return back to buddy.
