Subject: [PATCH 2/3] mm: make the threshold of enabling THP configurable
Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2011 00:34:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308587683-2555-2-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308587683-2555-1-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com>

Don't hard-code 512M as the threshold in kernel, make it configruable,
and set 512M by default.
