From 3dccbd158ae491717c2ef75ef51179561903f5aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrea Arcangeli Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2011 15:03:00 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] thp: reduce khugepaged freezing latency Use wait_event_freezable_timeout() instead of schedule_timeout_interruptible() to avoid missing freezer wakeups. A try_to_freeze() would have been needed in the khugepaged_alloc_hugepage tight loop too in case of the allocation failing repeatedly, and wait_event_freezable_timeout will provide it too. khugepaged would still freeze just fine by trying again the next minute but it's better if it freezes immediately.
