[PATCH/RFC v2 2/3] mm/swap: introduce free_pages_and_swap_cache_nolru()

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

 



This is a variant of free_pages_and_swap_cache() that does not call
lru_add_drain(), for better performance in case when the passed pages
are guaranteed to not be in LRU.
