[PATCH 2/5] Breakout page_order() to internal.h to avoid special knowledge of the buddy allocator

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The statistics patch later needs to know what order a free page is on the
free lists. Rather than having special knowledge of page_private() when
PageBuddy() is set, this patch places out page_order() in internal.h and
adds a VM_BUG_ON to catch using it on non-PageBuddy pages.
