Subject: [PATCH v2] delete unnecessary bootmem struct page array
Date: Tue, 3 Jun 2014 13:30:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1401773445-25256-1-git-send-email-enjoymindful@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Honggang Li <enjoymindful@gmail.com>
The patch based on linux-next-2014-06-02.
The old init_maps function does two things:
1) allocates and initializes one struct page array for bootmem
2) count the number of total pages
After removed the source code related to the unnecessary array, the name
'init_maps' is some kind of improper named, as it just count the number of
total page numbers. So, I renamed the function as 'mem_total_pages'.
I tested the patch through repeat reboot the uml kernel many times.
[real@name linux-next]$ make ARCH=um defconfig
[real@name linux-next]$ make ARCH=um linux
[real@name linux-next]$ file linux
linux: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, not stripped
[real@name linux-next]$ ./linux ubda=/home/real/linux-next/Fedora20-AMD64-root_fs mem=256m && sync && echo 1
[real@name linux-next]$ ./linux ubda=/home/real/linux-next/Fedora20-AMD64-root_fs mem=256m && sync && echo 2
(repeat reboot the uml kernel many times..)
