Re: [PATCH 1/5] mm/slab_common: move kmem_cache definition to internal header

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

 



Hello Joonsoo,

Seems like this is a cleanup patchset. I want to mention another
tiny cleanup here.

You removed the "struct slab" before but it seems there is still
a slab_page field in page descriptor left and has no user now, right?

Thanks
Zhang
