mm: record the migration reason for struct migration_target_control
Patch series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent", v2. As discussed in previous thread [1], there is an inconsistency when handling hugetlb migration. When handling the migration of freed hugetlb, it prevents fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio(). However, when dealing with in-use hugetlb, it allows fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(), which can break the per-node hugetlb pool and might result in unexpected failures when node bound workloads doesn't get what is asssumed available. This patchset tries to make the hugetlb migration strategy more clear and consistent. Please find details in each patch. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/6f26ce22d2fcd523418a085f2c588fe0776d46e7.1706794035.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com/ This patch (of 2): To support different hugetlb allocation strategies during hugetlb migration based on various migration reasons, record the migration reason in the migration_target_control structure as a preparation.
