[PATCH 2/4] mm, migrate: allocation new page lazyily in unmap_and_move()

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

 



We don't need a new page and then go out immediately if some condition
is met. Allocation has overhead in comparison with some condition check,
so allocating lazyily is preferable solution.
