[PATCH 3/6] Remember what the preferred zone is for zone_statistics

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

 



On NUMA, zone_statistics() is used to record events like numa hit, miss
and foreign. It assumes that the first zone in a zonelist is the preferred
zone. When multiple zonelists are replaced by one that is filtered, this
is no longer the case.

This patch records what the preferred zone is rather than assuming the
first zone in the zonelist is it. This simplifies the reading of later
patches in this set.
