[PATCH v2 06/21] KVM: x86/mmu: Move fast_page_fault() call above mmu_topup_memory_caches()

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

 



Avoid refilling the memory caches and potentially slow reclaim/swap when
handling a fast page fault, which does not need to allocate any new
objects.
