[PATCH 2/2] mm: gup: do not call try_grab_folio() in slow path

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

 



The try_grab_folio() is supposed to be used in fast path and it elevates
folio refcount by using add ref unless zero.  We are guaranteed to have
at least one stable reference in slow path, so the simple atomic add
could be used.  The performance difference should be trivial, but the
misuse may be confusing and misleading.
