- slab-allocators-cleanup-zeroing-allocations.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     Slab allocators: cleanup zeroing allocations
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     slab-allocators-cleanup-zeroing-allocations.patch

This patch was dropped because it broke

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Slab allocators: cleanup zeroing allocations
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

It becomes now easy to support the zeroing allocs with generic inline
functions in slab.h.  Provide inline definitions to allow the continued use of
kzalloc, kmem_cache_zalloc etc but remove other definitions of zeroing
functions from the slab allocators and util.c.
