-Subject: mm: fix remote numa hits statistics
-
-From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com>
-
-commit 2df26639e708a88dcc22171949da638a9998f3bc upstream.
-
-Jia He has noticed that commit b9f00e147f27 ("mm, page_alloc: reduce
-branches in zone_statistics") has an unintentional side effect that
-remote node allocation requests are accounted as NUMA_MISS rathat than
-NUMA_HIT and NUMA_OTHER if such a request doesn't use __GFP_OTHER_NODE.
-
-There are many of these potentially because the flag is used very rarely
-while we have many users of __alloc_pages_node.
-
-Fix this by simply ignoring __GFP_OTHER_NODE (it can be removed in a
-follow up patch) and treat all allocations that were satisfied from the
-preferred zone's node as NUMA_HITS because this is the same node we
-requested the allocation from in most cases.  If this is not the local
-node then we just account it as NUMA_OTHER rather than NUMA_LOCAL.
-
-One downsize would be that an allocation request for a node which is
-outside of the mempolicy nodemask would be reported as a hit which is a
-bit weird but that was the case before b9f00e147f27 already.
-
