[patch 125/200] mm, page_alloc: remove setup_pageset()

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

 



From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm, page_alloc: remove setup_pageset()

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.
