Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] bitmap: generalize node_random()
Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2025 16:08:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250617200854.60753-2-yury.norov@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250617200854.60753-1-yury.norov@gmail.com>

From: "Yury Norov [NVIDIA]" <yury.norov@gmail.com>

Generalize node_random() and make it available to general bitmaps and
cpumasks users.

Notice, find_first_bit() is generally faster than find_nth_bit(), and we
employ it when there's a single set bit in the bitmap.

See commit 3e061d924fe9c7b4 ("lib/nodemask: optimize node_random for
nodemask with single NUMA node").
