- slub-fix-numa-bootstrap.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     SLUB: Fix numa bootstrap
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     slub-fix-numa-bootstrap.patch

This patch was dropped because it was folded into slub-core.patch

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: SLUB: Fix numa bootstrap
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

NUMA bootstrap calls new_slab() if more than one node is found on bootup. 
new_slab() assumes a standard slab context where interrupts must be
disabled.  It enables interrupts for the call into the page allocator and
then disables them again.  Interrupts do not have to be disabled during on
bootstrap because we still run single threaded there.

I dropped the interrupt preservation code just before SLUB v6 because it
looked useless there.  SLUB worked on the following NUMA tests that just
had a single node.  Sigh.

Enable interrupts after calling new_slab.
