freeing up pages to the local_freelist

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

 



 Hi,

   When does a process free the unwanted pages to its own local_freelist
rather than freeing it to the global freelist ? Is this done only by any
particular kind of processes OR it is done by all processes?

 please do explain.

 thanks,
raghu
