From 30c29bea6af2d3b6ffc8865864de7fc08cadb5df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2012 14:09:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] slab: do ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for all pages of slab Right now, we call ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for first page of slab when we clear SlabPfmemalloc flag. This is fine for most swap-over-network use cases as it is expected that order-0 pages are in use. Unfortunately it is possible that that __ac_put_obj() checks SlabPfmemalloc on a tail page and while this is harmless, it is sloppy. This patch ensures that the head page is always used. This problem was originally identified by Joonsoo Kim.
