Subject: [PATCH 0/2] generic smp helpers vs kmalloc
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2009 23:32:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090212223200.979433820@chello.nl> (raw)
Steve's recent patches brought up the need (or rather, lack thereof) of the
kmalloc() usage in smp_call_function_single().
The first patch, removes the need for kmalloc() for smp_call_function() too.
The second patch then fully removes the kmalloc() usage.
Patches have been compile and boot tested on a dual core -- so no real
stress testing.
