[PATCH 4/5] swap: remove the swap lock in swap_cache_get_folio

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

 



From: Kairui Song <kasong@xxxxxxxxxxx>

There is only one caller not keep holding a reference or lock the
swap device while calling this function. Just move the lock out
of this function, it only used to prevent swapoff, and this helper
function is very short so there is no performance regression
issue. Help saves a few cycles.
