Subject: [PATCH] coroutine: reserve 5,000 mappings
Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2024 14:12:32 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240320181232.1464819-1-stefanha@redhat.com> (raw)

Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com> pointed out that the coroutine
pool size heuristic is very conservative. Instead of halving
max_map_count, he suggested reserving 5,000 mappings for non-coroutine
users based on observations of guests he has access to.

Fixes: 86a637e48104 ("coroutine: cap per-thread local pool size")
