[PATCH 5/6] change alloc function in __vmalloc_area_node

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

 



__vmalloc_area_node never pass -1 to alloc_pages_node.
It means node's validity check is unnecessary.
So we can use alloc_pages_exact_node instead of alloc_pages_node.
It could avoid comparison and branch as 6484eb3e2a81807722 tried.
