[RFC Patch V1 09/30] mm, memcg: Use cpu_to_mem()/numa_mem_id() to support memoryless node

From: Jiang Liu
Date: Fri Jul 11 2014 - 03:36:06 EST


When CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES is enabled, cpu_to_node()/numa_node_id()
may return a node without memory, and later cause system failure/panic
when calling kmalloc_node() and friends with returned node id.
So use cpu_to_mem()/numa_mem_id() instead to get the nearest node with
memory for the/current cpu.

If CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES is disabled, cpu_to_mem()/numa_mem_id()
is the same as cpu_to_node()/numa_node_id().
