From 91a76be37ff89795526c452a6799576b03bec501 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominique Martinet Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2018 15:14:37 +0900 Subject: 9p: add a per-client fcall kmem_cache Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up end-to-end latency. The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache between different clients of the same size. Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with kmalloc directly.
