alloc_pages_bulk_node() may partially succeed and allocate fewer than the requested nr_pages. There are several conditions under which this can occur, but we have encountered the case where CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER is enabled causing all bulk allocations to always fallback to single page allocations due to commit187ad460b8("mm/page_alloc: avoid page allocator recursion with pagesets.lock held"). Currently vm_module_tags_populate() immediately fails when alloc_pages_bulk_node() returns fewer than the requested number of pages. When this happens memory allocation profiling gets disabled, for example [ 14.297583] [9: modprobe: 465] Failed to allocate memory for allocation tags in the module scsc_wlan. Memory allocation profiling is disabled! [ 14.299339] [9: modprobe: 465] modprobe: Failed to insmod '/vendor/lib/modules/scsc_wlan.ko' with args '': Out of memory This patch causes vm_module_tags_populate() to retry bulk allocations for the remaining memory instead of failing immediately which will avoid the disablement of memory allocation profiling.
