Subject: [patch 8/8] mm: fix madvise WILLNEED performance problem
Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2020 22:17:22 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201122061722.Tef3ViFuW%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201121221631.948ae4655e913a319d61700a@linux-foundation.org>
From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>
Subject: mm: fix madvise WILLNEED performance problem
The calculation of the end page index was incorrect, leading to a
regression of 70% when running stress-ng. With this fix, we instead
see a performance improvement of 3%.
