This is important infrastructure stuff. num_online_nodes is used in a couple of other places where it could be replaced by nr_online_nodes. 7 grufile.c gru_get_config_info 181 if (num_online_nodes() > 1 && 8 grufile.c gru_get_config_info 187 info.nodes = num_online_nodes(); 9 hugetlb.c return_unused_surplus_pages 878 unsigned long remaining_iterations = num_online_nodes(); a hugetlb.c return_unused_surplus_pages 907 remaining_iterations = num_online_nodes(); b page_alloc.c MAX_NODE_LOAD 2115 #define MAX_NODE_LOAD (num_online_nodes()) c page_alloc.c build_zonelists 2324 load = num_online_nodes(); d page_alloc.c build_all_zonelists 2475 num_online_nodes(), e slub.c list_locations 3651 if (num_online_nodes() > 1 && !nodes_empty(l->nodes) && f svc.c svc_pool_map_choose_mode 127 if (num_online_nodes() > 1) { In other places its avoided because deemed to be too expensive. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
