[patch 5/7] mm: page_cgroup: check page_cgroup arrays in lookup_page_cgroup() only when necessary

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

 



lookup_page_cgroup() is usually used only against pages that are used
in userspace.

The exception is the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM-only memcg check from the page
allocator: it can run on pages without page_cgroup descriptors
allocated when the pages are fed into the page allocator for the first
time during boot or memory hotplug.

Include the array check only when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is set and save the
unnecessary check in production kernels.
