From 31a6c1909f51dbe9bf08eb40dc64e3db90cf6f79 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlastimil Babka Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:49:13 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm, page_alloc: set alloc_flags only once in slowpath In __alloc_pages_slowpath(), alloc_flags doesn't change after it's initialized, so move the initialization above the retry: label. Also make the comment above the initialization more descriptive. The only exception in the alloc_flags being constant is ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS, which may change due to TIF_MEMDIE being set on the allocating thread. We can fix this, and make the code simpler and a bit more effective at the same time, by moving the part that determines ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS from gfp_to_alloc_flags() to gfp_pfmemalloc_allowed(). This means we don't have to mask out ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS in numerous places in __alloc_pages_slowpath() anymore. The only two tests for the flag can instead call gfp_pfmemalloc_allowed().
