[PATCH 2/3] dmapool: improve scalability of dma_pool_free

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

 



dma_pool_free() scales poorly when the pool contains many pages because
pool_find_page() does a linear scan of all allocated pages.  Improve its
scalability by replacing the linear scan with a red-black tree lookup. 
In big O notation, this improves the algorithm from O(n^2) to O(n * log n).

I moved some code from dma_pool_destroy() into pool_free_page() to avoid code
repetition.
