From 6e8267f532a17165ab551ac5fdafcba5333dcca5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Mon, 1 Aug 2011 21:38:06 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] direct-io: use a slab cache for struct dio A direct slab call is slightly faster than kmalloc and can be better cached per CPU. It also avoids rounding to the next kmalloc slab. In addition this enforces cache line alignment for struct dio to avoid any false sharing.
