RE: [PATCH 1/3] mm, slab: deprecate SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag

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

 



> The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag used to be implemented in SLAB, which was
> removed.  SLUB instead relies on the page allocator's NUMA policies.
> Change the flag's value to 0 to free up the value it had, and mark it
> for full removal once all users are gone.
