[PATCH 24/42] ext4: use percpu data structures for lg_prealloc_list

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

 



From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx>

lg_prealloc_list seems to cry out for a per-cpu data structure; on a large
smp system I think this should be better.  I've lightly tested this change
on a 4-cpu system.
