[PATCH] readahead: use ilog2 instead of a while loop in page_cache_ra_order()

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

 



From: Pankaj Raghav <p.raghav@xxxxxxxxxxx>

A while loop is used to adjust the new_order to be lower than the
ra->size. ilog2 could be used to do the same instead of using a loop.

ilog2 typically resolves to a bit scan reverse instruction. This is
particularly useful when ra->size is smaller than the 2^new_order as it
resolves in one instruction instead of looping to find the new_order.

No functional changes.
