[PATCH] mm: huge_memory: don't start_stop_khugepaged for non-PMD THP

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

 



From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@xxxxxxxx>

khugepaged will be automatically started when PMD-sized THP is enabled
(either of the per-size anon control or the top-level control are set
to "always" or "madvise"), and it'll be automatically shutdown when
PMD-sized THP is disabled (when both the per-size anon control and the
top-level control are "never").

It seems unnecessary to call start_stop_khugepaged() for non-PMD THP,
as it would only waste CPU time.
