From 348e1e04b5229a481891699ce86da009b793f29e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nishanth Aravamudan Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2008 14:29:42 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] hugetlb: fix pool shrinking while in restricted cpuset Adam Litke noticed that currently we grow the hugepage pool independent of any cpuset the running process may be in, but when shrinking the pool, the cpuset is checked. This leads to inconsistency when shrinking the pool in a restricted cpuset -- an administrator may have been able to grow the pool on a node restricted by a containing cpuset, but they cannot shrink it there. There are two options: either prevent growing of the pool outside of the cpuset or allow shrinking outside of the cpuset. >From previous discussions on linux-mm, /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages is an administrative interface that should not be restricted by cpusets. So allow shrinking the pool by removing pages from nodes outside of current's cpuset.
