Re: [PATCH v3 3/7] mm, page_alloc: remove setup_pageset()

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

 



> We initialize boot-time pagesets with setup_pageset(), which sets high and
> batch values that effectively disable pcplists.
>
> We can remove this wrapper if we just set these values for all pagesets in
> pageset_init(). Non-boot pagesets then subsequently update them to the proper
> values.
>
> No functional change.
