From f123d74abf91574837d14e5ea58f6a779a387bf5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2013 11:28:49 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mm: Only flush TLBs if a transhuge PMD is modified for NUMA pte scanning NUMA PTE scanning is expensive both in terms of the scanning itself and the TLB flush if there are any updates. The TLB flush is avoided if no PTEs are updated but there is a bug where transhuge PMDs are considered to be updated even if they were already pmd_numa. This patch addresses the problem and TLB flushes should be reduced.
