The patch titled vmstats: add cond_resched() to refresh_cpu_vm_stats() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was add-cond_resched-to-refresh_cpu_vm_stats.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: vmstats: add cond_resched() to refresh_cpu_vm_stats() From: Dimitri Sivanich <sivanich@xxxxxxx> We've found that it can take quite a bit of time (100's of usec) to get through the zone loop in refresh_cpu_vm_stats(). Adding a cond_resched() to allow other threads to run in the non-preemptive case.
