+Subject: [PATCH 302/323] mm: Disable NUMA_BALANCING_DEFAULT_ENABLED and
+ TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE on PREEMPT_RT
+Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.204-rt100.tar.xz
+
+TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE:
+There are potential non-deterministic delays to an RT thread if a critical
+memory region is not THP-aligned and a non-RT buffer is located in the same
+hugepage-aligned region. It's also possible for an unrelated thread to migrate
+pages belonging to an RT task incurring unexpected page faults due to memory
+defragmentation even if khugepaged is disabled.
+
+Regular HUGEPAGEs are not affected by this can be used.
+
+NUMA_BALANCING:
+There is a non-deterministic delay to mark PTEs PROT_NONE to gather NUMA fault
+samples, increased page faults of regions even if mlocked and non-deterministic
+delays when migrating pages.
+
