[RFC PATCH 06/14] mm/slub: pass additional args to alloc_slab_page

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

 



From: Jann Horn <jannh@xxxxxxxxxx>

This is refactoring in preparation for SLAB_VIRTUAL.

The implementation of SLAB_VIRTUAL needs access to struct kmem_cache in
alloc_slab_page in order to take unused slabs from the slab freelist,
which is per-cache.

In addition to that it passes two different sets of GFP flags.
meta_gfp_flags is used for the memory backing the metadata region and
page tables, and gfp_flags for the data memory.
