Subject: [PATCH v4 09/10] thp: lazy huge zero page allocation
Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2012 09:00:58 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1350280859-18801-10-git-send-email-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1350280859-18801-1-git-send-email-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>

Instead of allocating huge zero page on hugepage_init() we can postpone it
until first huge zero page map. It saves memory if THP is not in use.

cmpxchg() is used to avoid race on huge_zero_pfn initialization.
