Subject: Re: [patch 3/4] cpu alloc: The allocator
Christoph Lameter a écrit :
> The per cpu allocator allows dynamic allocation of memory on all
> processors simultaneously. A bitmap is used to track used areas.
> The allocator implements tight packing to reduce the cache footprint
> and increase speed since cacheline contention is typically not a concern
> for memory mainly used by a single cpu. Small objects will fill up gaps
> left by larger allocations that required alignments.
>
> The size of the cpu_alloc area can be changed via the percpu=xxx
> kernel parameter.
