Subject: [PATCH mm 2/3] kill redundancy in rotate_reclaimable_page
Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2007 20:49:39 +0100 (BST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0709272048330.19737@blonde.wat.veritas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0709272045180.19737@blonde.wat.veritas.com>
a.k.a. mm-use-pagevec-to-rotate-reclaimable-page-cleanup.patch
diff -U5 shows rotate_reclaimable_page() is pointlessly testing
PageActive and PageLRU twice in a row: of course there used to be a
lock taken in between those tests; but now that pagevec_move_tail() is
making those tests under lock, there's no point to repeating them here.
