From: Huang Ying Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2017 23:22:23 +0000 (-0700) Subject: mm, THP, swap: don't allocate huge cluster for file backed swap device X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f0eea189e8e969b66e03bac8a7d92888ba267854;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git mm, THP, swap: don't allocate huge cluster for file backed swap device It's hard to write a whole transparent huge page (THP) to a file backed swap device during swapping out and the file backed swap device isn't very popular. So the huge cluster allocation for the file backed swap device is disabled.
