The patch titled Subject: mm: memcontrol: make cgroup_memory_nokmem static has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-memcontrol-make-cgroup_memory_nokmem-static.patch This patch should soon appear at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-memcontrol-make-cgroup_memory_nokmem-static.patch and later at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-memcontrol-make-cgroup_memory_nokmem-static.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Muchun Song <songmuchun@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: memcontrol: make cgroup_memory_nokmem static commit 494c1dfe855e ("mm: memcg/slab: create a new set of kmalloc-cg-<n> caches") makes cgroup_memory_nokmem global, however, it is unnecessary because there is already a function mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() which exports it. Just make it static and replace it with mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() in mm/slab_common.c.
