From cc59850ef940e4ee6a765d28b439b9bafe07cf63 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Konstantin Khlebnikov Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2012 15:07:04 -0800 Subject: mm: add free_hot_cold_page_list() helper This patch adds helper free_hot_cold_page_list() to free list of 0-order pages. It frees pages directly from list without temporary page-vector. It also calls trace_mm_pagevec_free() to simulate pagevec_free() behaviour. bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 1/1 grow/shrink: 1/3 up/down: 267/-295 (-28) function old new delta free_hot_cold_page_list - 264 +264 get_page_from_freelist 2129 2132 +3 __pagevec_free 243 239 -4 split_free_page 380 373 -7 release_pages 606 510 -96 free_page_list 188 - -188 Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov Cc: Mel Gorman Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro Acked-by: Minchan Kim Acked-by: Hugh Dickins Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- mm/page_alloc.c | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+) (limited to 'mm/page_alloc.c') diff --git a/mm/page_alloc.c b/mm/page_alloc.c index 7990ca1..cd0c95c 100644 --- a/mm/page_alloc.c +++ b/mm/page_alloc.c @@ -1189,6 +1189,19 @@ out: } /* + * Free a list of 0-order pages + */ +void free_hot_cold_page_list(struct list_head *list, int cold) +{ + struct page *page, *next; + + list_for_each_entry_safe(page, next, list, lru) { + trace_mm_pagevec_free(page, cold); + free_hot_cold_page(page, cold); + } +} + +/* * split_page takes a non-compound higher-order page, and splits it into * n (1<
