Subject: [PATCH 4/5] ksm: use find_mergeable_vma in try_to_merge_with_ksm_page
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2015 18:01:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1446483691-8494-5-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1446483691-8494-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com>
Doing the VM_MERGEABLE check after the page == kpage check won't
provide any meaningful benefit. The !vma->anon_vma check of
find_mergeable_vma is the only superfluous bit in using
find_mergeable_vma because the !PageAnon check of
try_to_merge_one_page() implicitly checks for that, but it still looks
cleaner to share the same find_mergeable_vma().
