Can't we use a bit in zone->flags or > something? It won't be "a" bit since zone_type is an enum. However zone->flags could be split into 2 bitfields to hold enum zone_flags and enum zone_type. However this patch still is independent of that since we have struct page as starting point and zone_type is available from there directly w/o monkeying around with any zone structs. -Vineet -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
