[PATCH 1/2] Allocate "struct io" from a slab.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Allocate "struct io" from a slab.

This patch changes dm-io, so that "struct io" is allocated from a slab cache.
It used to be allocated with kmalloc. Allocating from a slab will be needed
for the next patch, because it requires a special alignment of "struct io"
and kmalloc cannot meet this alignment.
