From 42614b0582542a2ab26d86956d92b4f54c69d735 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 27 May 2014 10:28:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: lzo - try kmalloc() before vmalloc() zswap allocates one LZO context per online cpu. Using vmalloc() for small (16KB) memory areas has drawback of slowing down /proc/vmallocinfo and /proc/meminfo reads, TLB pressure and poor NUMA locality, as default NUMA policy at boot time is to interleave pages : edumazet:~# grep lzo /proc/vmallocinfo | head -4 0xffffc90006062000-0xffffc90006067000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2 0xffffc90006067000-0xffffc9000606c000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2 0xffffc9000606c000-0xffffc90006071000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2 0xffffc90006071000-0xffffc90006076000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2 This patch tries a regular kmalloc() and fallback to vmalloc in case memory is too fragmented.
