Revert "Revert "mm/compaction: fix set skip in fast_find_migrateblock""
This reverts commit95e7a450b8
("Revert "mm/compaction: fix set skip in fast_find_migrateblock""). Commit7efc3b7261
("mm/compaction: fix set skip in fast_find_migrateblock") was reverted due to bug reports about khugepaged consuming large amounts of CPU without making progress. The underlying bug was partially fixed by commitcfccd2e63e
("mm, compaction: finish pageblocks on complete migration failure") but it only mitigated the problem and Vlastimil Babka pointing out the same issue could theoretically happen to kcompactd. As pageblocks containing pages that fail to migrate should now be forcibly rescanned to set the skip hint if skip hints are used, fast_find_migrateblock() should no longer loop on a small subset of pageblocks for prolonged periods of time. Revert the revert so fast_find_migrateblock() is effective again. Using the mmtests config workload-usemem-stress-numa-compact, the number of unique ranges scanned was analysed for both kcompactd and !kcompactd activity. 6.4.0-rc1-vanilla kcompactd 7 range=(0x10d600~0x10d800) 7 range=(0x110c00~0x110e00) 7 range=(0x110e00~0x111000) 7 range=(0x111800~0x111a00) 7 range=(0x111a00~0x111c00) !kcompactd 1 range=(0x113e00~0x114000) 1 range=(0x114000~0x114020) 1 range=(0x114400~0x114489) 1 range=(0x114489~0x1144aa) 1 range=(0x1144aa~0x114600) 6.4.0-rc1-mm-revertfastmigrate kcompactd 17 range=(0x104200~0x104400) 17 range=(0x104400~0x104600) 17 range=(0x104600~0x104800) 17 range=(0x104800~0x104a00) 17 range=(0x104a00~0x104c00) !kcompactd 1793 range=(0x15c200~0x15c400) 5436 range=(0x105800~0x105a00) 19826 range=(0x150a00~0x150c00) 19833 range=(0x150800~0x150a00) 19834 range=(0x11ce00~0x11d000) 6.4.0-rc1-mm-follupfastfind kcompactd 22 range=(0x107200~0x107400) 23 range=(0x107400~0x107600) 23 range=(0x107600~0x107800) 23 range=(0x107c00~0x107e00) 23 range=(0x107e00~0x108000) !kcompactd 3 range=(0x890240~0x890400) 5 range=(0x886e00~0x887000) 5 range=(0x88a400~0x88a600) 6 range=(0x88f800~0x88fa00) 9 range=(0x88a400~0x88a420) Note that the vanilla kernel and the full series had some duplication of ranges scanned but it was not severe and would be in line with compaction resets when the skip hints are cleared. Just a revert of commit7efc3b7261
("mm/compaction: fix set skip in fast_find_migrateblock") showed excessive rescans of the same ranges so the series should not reintroduce bug 1206848.
