Subject: RE: [linux-3.10.17] Could not allocate memory from free CMA areas

Dear joonsoo kim,
I have your patches for: Aggressively allocate memory from cma ....
We are facing almost similar problem here.
If any of your patches still working for you please let us know here.
I would like to try those approach.

Hello,

I stopped to implement it, because there are other bugs on CMA related codes.
Although aggressively allocate... doesn't have bugs itself, it enlarges
existing freepage counting bugs significantly so I'm first trying to fix
those bugs. See the below link.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/4/79

I will restart to implement aggressively... after fixing these bugs.

If you have interest on next version of aggressively allocate..., see the
following link.
