Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/2] Allow high order pages to be stored on PCP
Date: Mon, 31 May 2021 13:04:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210531120412.17411-1-mgorman@techsingularity.net> (raw)
The per-cpu page allocator (PCP) only handles order-0 pages. With the
series "Use local_lock for pcp protection and reduce stat overhead"
and "Calculate pcp->high based on zone sizes and active CPUs", it's now
feasible to store high-order pages on PCP lists.
This small series allows PCP to store "cheap" orders where cheap is
determined by PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER and THP-sized allocations. For
convenience, the series with the prerequisites are at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux.git mm-pcphighorder-v1r7
The baseline is 5.13-rc2 because that is what I tested with but the
patches rebase cleanly to 5.13-rc4.
