cpusets: restructure the function cpuset_update_task_memory_state()
The kernel still allocates the page caches on old node after modifying its cpuset's mems when 'memory_spread_page' was set, or it didn't spread the page cache evenly over all the nodes that faulting task is allowed to usr after memory_spread_page was set. it is caused by the old mem_allowed and flags of the task, the current kernel doesn't updates them unless some function invokes cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), it is too late sometimes.We must update the mem_allowed and the flags of the tasks in time. Slab has the same problem. The following patches fix this bug by updating tasks' mem_allowed and spread flag after its cpuset's mems or spread flag is changed. This patch: Extract a function from cpuset_update_task_memory_state(). It will be used later for update tasks' page/slab spread flags after its cpuset's flag is set Signed-off-by: Miao Xie <[email protected]> Cc: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Christoph Lameter <[email protected]> Cc: Paul Menage <[email protected]> Cc: Nick Piggin <[email protected]> Cc: Yasunori Goto <[email protected]> Cc: Pekka Enberg <[email protected]> Cc: David Rientjes <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
