[PATCH v2 20/25] erofs: kill use_vmap module parameter

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

 



As Christoph said [1],
"vm_map_ram is supposed to generally behave better.  So if
it doesn't please report that that to the arch maintainer
and linux-mm so that they can look into the issue.  Having
user make choices of deep down kernel internals is just
a horrible interface.

Please talk to maintainers of other bits of the kernel
if you see issues and / or need enhancements. "

Let's redo the previous conclusion and kill the vmap
approach.
