Subject: [PATCH v4 4/4] mm/slub: make the description of slab_min_objects helpful in doc
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2023 11:41:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231215034150.108783-5-sxwjean@me.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231215034150.108783-1-sxwjean@me.com>
From: Xiongwei Song <xiongwei.song@windriver.com>
There is no a value assigned to slab_min_objects by default, it always
is 0 that is initialized by compiler if no assigned value by command line.
min_objects is calculated based on processor numbers in calculate_order().
For more details, see commit 9b2cd506e5f2 ("slub: Calculate min_objects
based on number of processors.")
