Subject: [RFC 3/3] arm: mm: support get_user_pages_fast
Date: Thu,  6 Sep 2018 19:22:12 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180906102212.218294-4-minchan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180906102212.218294-1-minchan@kernel.org>

Recently, there was a report get_user_pages_fast helps app launching
speed due to reducing uninterruptible sleep time because we don't
need to contend for mmap_sem, I believe.

With get_user_pages_fast, that uniterruptible sleep time is reduced
about 5~10% by testing.
