From a4b526b3ba6353cd89a38e41da48ed83b0ead16f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Schwidefsky Date: Fri, 1 Aug 2008 16:39:12 +0200 Subject: [S390] Optimize storage key operations for anon pages For anonymous pages without a swap cache backing the check in page_remove_rmap for the physical dirty bit in page_remove_rmap is unnecessary. The instructions that are used to check and reset the dirty bit are expensive. Removing the check noticably speeds up process exit. In addition the clearing of the dirty bit in __SetPageUptodate is pointless as well. With these two changes there is no storage key operation for an anonymous page anymore if it does not hit the swap space. The micro benchmark which repeatedly executes an empty shell script gets about 5% faster.

This also facilitates lockdeping of page lock.
