[patch 057/101] mm, vmscan: release/reacquire lru_lock on pgdat change

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

 



From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm, vmscan: release/reacquire lru_lock on pgdat change

With node-lru, the locking is based on the pgdat. As Minchan pointed
out, there is an opportunity to reduce LRU lock release/acquire in
check_move_unevictable_pages by only changing lock on a pgdat change.

[mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: remove double initialisation]
