[PATCH -mm] task_struct: move ->fpu_counter and ->oomkilladj

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

 



There is nice 2 byte hole after struct task_struct::ioprio field
into which we can put two 1-byte fields: ->fpu_counter and ->oomkilladj.

[cc'ing Arjan just in case ->fpu_counter placement wasn't completely random :^)]
