[PATCH v2 10/21] KVM: x86/mmu: Make __GFP_ZERO a property of the memory cache

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

 



Add a gfp_zero flag to 'struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache' and use it to
control __GFP_ZERO instead of hardcoding a call to kmem_cache_zalloc().
A future patch needs such a flag for the __get_free_page() path, as
gfn arrays do not need/want the allocator to zero the memory.  Convert
the kmem_cache paths to __GFP_ZERO now so as to avoid a weird and
inconsistent API in the future.

No functional change intended.
