From 9e5bcd610ffcedf5e485e78a72762810b25c7f25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yisheng Xie Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2017 14:57:29 -0800 Subject: mm/migration: make isolate_movable_page() return int type Patch series "HWPOISON: soft offlining for non-lru movable page", v6. After Minchan's commit bda807d44454 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page migration"), some type of non-lru page like zsmalloc and virtio-balloon page also support migration. Therefore, we can: 1) soft offlining no-lru movable pages, which means when memory corrected errors occur on a non-lru movable page, we can stop to use it by migrating data onto another page and disable the original (maybe half-broken) one. 2) enable memory hotplug for non-lru movable pages, i.e. we may offline blocks, which include such pages, by using non-lru page migration. This patchset is heavily dependent on non-lru movable page migration. This patch (of 4): Change the return type of isolate_movable_page() from bool to int. It will return 0 when isolate movable page successfully, and return -EBUSY when it isolates failed. There is no functional change within this patch but prepare for later patch.
