Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/2] mm: tlb: unmap scalability
Date: Mon, 09 Mar 2009 14:56:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49B511E9.8030405@nokia.com> (raw)

Hello,

Here's a patch proposal to make unmap to scale linearly on architectures 
that implement tlb_start_vma() and tlb_end_vma(), by adding range 
parameters. See <http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123610437815468&w=2> 
for the current problem.

The first patch only adds the new parameters. The second one changes the 
ARM architecture to use those parameters. A similar change should be of 
course made also for other architectures implementing those routines.

The patch was made for 2.6.29-rc7.

A.
