From b2455396be35383c4eebc6745cc718b1dd9e23df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Jackson Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2006 03:16:12 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] cpuset: memory_spread_slab drop useless PF_SPREAD_PAGE check The hook in the slab cache allocation path to handle cpuset memory spreading for tasks in cpusets with 'memory_spread_slab' enabled has a modest performance bug. The hook calls into the memory spreading handler alternate_node_alloc() if either of 'memory_spread_slab' or 'memory_spread_page' is enabled, even though the handler does nothing (albeit harmlessly) for the page case Fix - drop PF_SPREAD_PAGE from the set of flag bits that are used to trigger a call to alternate_node_alloc(). The page case is handled by separate hooks -- see the calls conditioned on cpuset_do_page_mem_spread() in mm/filemap.c Signed-off-by: Paul Jackson Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- Reading git-format-patch failed
