[PATCH 5/5] mm/slub: Refactor deactivate_slab()

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

 



Simply deactivate_slab() by removing variable 'lock' and replacing
'l' and 'm' with 'mode'. Instead, remove slab from list and unlock
n->list_lock when cmpxchg_double() fails, and then retry.

One slight functional change is releasing and taking n->list_lock again
when cmpxchg_double() fails. This is not harmful because SLUB avoids
deactivating slabs as much as possible.
