The patch titled Subject: mm/slab: separate cache_grow() to two parts has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-slab-separate-cache_grow-to-two-parts.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm/slab: separate cache_grow() to two parts This is a preparation step to implement lockless allocation path when there is no free objects in kmem_cache. What we'd like to do here is to refill cpu cache without holding a node lock. To accomplish this purpose, refill should be done after new slab allocation but before attaching the slab to the management list. So, this patch separates cache_grow() to two parts, allocation and attaching to the list in order to add some code inbetween them in the following patch.
