Specifically, I *think* the impact of this patch is that KSM will not accidentally split a huge page. Is that right? If so, it could do with being included in the changelog. On the other hand, can khugepaged be prevented from promoting a hugepage because of KSM? -- Mel Gorman Part-time Phd Student Linux Technology Center University of Limerick IBM Dublin Software Lab -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxx For more info on Linux MM, see: http://www.linux-mm.org/ .
