- slab-allocators-remove-multiple-alignment-specifications.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     slab allocators: remove multiple alignment specifications
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     slab-allocators-remove-multiple-alignment-specifications.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: slab allocators: remove multiple alignment specifications
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

It is not necessary to tell the slab allocators to align to a cacheline
if an explicit alignment was already specified. It is rather confusing
to specify multiple alignments.

Make sure that the call sites only use one form of alignment.
