innodb huge pages reclaim

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      MDEV-25341 added some memory reclaim however large page places the kernel in a difficult predicament unless the entire page is freed. While madvise(MADV_FREE) succeeds and VirtualAlloc(MEM_RESET) doesn't explicitly prohibit large pages.

      This task serves to act as a defrag.

      In MDEV-25342 the chunk (as a collection of pages) sizes are a multiple of a large page size. If pages are re-organised to allow for a chunk to be freed that provides a defrag mechanism.
