#1225022 — [PATCH] mm: memcontrol: fix order calculation in try_charge()

From"Jerome Marchand" <jmarchan@redhat.com>
Date2015-09-15 14:10 +0200
Subject[PATCH] mm: memcontrol: fix order calculation in try_charge()
Message-ID<q8XdD-4lR-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
Since commit <6539cc05386> (mm: memcontrol: fold mem_cgroup_do_charge()),
the order to pass to mem_cgroup_oom() is calculated by passing the number
of pages to get_order() instead of the expected  size in bytes. AFAICT,
it only affects the value displayed in the oom warning message.
This patch fix this.

We haven't noticed that just because the OOM is enabled only for page
faults of order-0 (single page) and get_order work just fine. Thanks for
noticing this. If we ever start triggering OOM on different orders this
would be broken.

Btw. a quick git grep shows that at least gart_iommu_init is using
number of pages as well. I haven't checked it does that intentionally,
though.

Thanks!

Thanks, Jerome. One minor thing:

fls(nr_pages)?

get_order() is basically fls(x / PAGE_SIZE).
