[PATCH] mm/mmap.c: refine data locality of find_vma_prev

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

 



When addr is out of the range of the whole rb_tree, pprev will points to
the biggest node. find_vma_prev gets is by going through the right most
node of the tree.

Since only the last node is the one it is looking for, it is not
necessary to assign pprev to those middle stage nodes. By assigning
pprev to the last node directly, it tries to improve the function
locality a little.
