  • 19770b326   mm: filter based on a nodemask as well as a gfp_mask ... Browse Code »

    The MPOL_BIND policy creates a zonelist that is used for allocations
    controlled by that mempolicy. As the per-node zonelist is already being
    filtered based on a zone id, this patch adds a version of __alloc_pages() that
    takes a nodemask for further filtering. This eliminates the need for
    MPOL_BIND to create a custom zonelist.

    A positive benefit of this is that allocations using MPOL_BIND now use the
    local node's distance-ordered zonelist instead of a custom node-id-ordered
    zonelist. I.e., pages will be allocated from the closest allowed node with
    available memory.

  • 95144c788   [PATCH] uninline zone helpers ... Browse Code »

    Helper functions for for_each_online_pgdat/for_each_zone look too big to be
    inlined. Speed of these helper macro itself is not very important. (inner
    loops are tend to do more work than this)

    This patch make helper function to be out-of-lined.

    inline out-of-line
    .text 005c0680 005bf6a0

    005c0680 - 005bf6a0 = FE0 = 4Kbytes.
