Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/smc: Use kvzalloc for allocating smc_link_group
Date: Thu, 20 Jan 2022 22:09:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220120140928.7137-1-tonylu@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)

When analyzed memory usage of SMC, we found that the size of struct
smc_link_group is 16048 bytes, which is too big for a busy machine to
allocate contiguous memory. Using kvzalloc instead that falls back to
vmalloc if there has not enough contiguous memory.
