[PATCH 7/8] mm, Remove cold parameter from free_hot_cold_page*

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

 



Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released are
cache hot. The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is likely that
enough pages will be freed in the near future that the per-cpu lists are
going to be recycled and the cache hotness information is lost. As no one
really cares about the hotness of pages being released to the allocator,
just ditch the parameter.

The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold pages. It
should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences between them.
__free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the refcount reaches
zero. free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount was already zero
which is non-obvious from the name. free_unref_page should be more obvious.

No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The parameter
is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless parameter
copied everywhere.
