Not necessarily. The approach also works without page migration. Depends on an intelligent allocation scheme that stays off the areas of interest to those restricted to low area allocations as much as possible and then is able to reclaim from a section of a zone if necessary. The implementation of alloc_pages_range() that I did way back did not reply on page migration. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
