[PATCH] mm, thp: Do not queue fully unmapped pages for deferred split

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

 



Adding fully unmapped pages into deferred split queue is not productive:
these pages are about to be freed or they are pinned and cannot be split
anyway.
