If we are changing the direction then just do that. I don't see the point of these changes. As far as I can tell it is just adding noise to the diff and has no effect on the final code as the outcome is mostly the same except for you don't update size in the event that you overwrite nc->va to NULL. > @@ -64,8 +74,8 @@ void *__page_frag_alloc_align(struct page_frag_cache *nc, > unsigned int align_mask) > { > unsigned int size = PAGE_SIZE; > + unsigned int remaining; > struct page *page; > - int offset; > > if (unlikely(!nc->va)) { > refill: > @@ -82,35 +92,20 @@ void *__page_frag_alloc_align(struct page_frag_cache *nc, > */ > page_ref_add(page, PAGE_FRAG_CACHE_MAX_SIZE); > > - /* reset page count bias and offset to start of new frag */ > + /* reset page count bias and remaining to start of new frag */ > nc->pfmemalloc = page_is_pfmemalloc(page); > nc->pagecnt_bias = PAGE_FRAG_CACHE_MAX_SIZE + 1; > - nc->offset = size; > + nc->remaining = size; > } > > - offset = nc->offset - fragsz; > - if (unlikely(offset < 0)) { > - page = virt_to_page(nc->va); > - > - if (!page_ref_sub_and_test(page, nc->pagecnt_bias)) > - goto refill; > - > - if (unlikely(nc->pfmemalloc)) { > - free_unref_page(page, compound_order(page)); > - goto refill; > - } > - > #if (PAGE_SIZE < PAGE_FRAG_CACHE_MAX_SIZE) > - /* if size can vary use size else just use PAGE_SIZE */ > - size = nc->size; > + /* if size can vary use size else just use PAGE_SIZE */ > + size = nc->size; > #endif Rather than pulling this out and placing it here it might make more sense at the start of the function. Basically just overwrite size w/ either PAGE_SIZE or nc->size right at the start. Then if we have to reallocate we overwrite it.

You set it a few lines below.
