By not modifying a single line in the existing VM path, your patch simply duplicates functionality from that existing code, which I'm not sure is any better. I think there's a lot of commonality with what the swap code, NUMA page migration, and memory removal have to do. However, none of them share any code today. I think all of the implementations could benefit from making them a bit more generic. -- Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Tue Mar 30 10:27:13 2004
