Process 0 Process 1 Process 2..Inf split_huge_page_to_list unmap_page split_huge_pmd_address __migration_entry_wait(head) __migration_entry_wait(tail) remap_page (roll back) remove_migration_ptes rmap_walk_anon cond_resched Where __migration_entry_wait(tail) is occurred in kernel space, e.g., copy_to_user, which will immediately fault again without rescheduling, and thus occupy the cpu fully. When there are too many processes performing __migration_entry_wait on tail page, remap_page will never be done after cond_resched. This relaxes __migration_entry_wait on tail page, thus gives remap_page a chance to complete.
