    tty: Take a 256 byte padding into account when buffering below sub-page units · 352fa6ad
    Mel Gorman 提交于
    The TTY layer takes some care to ensure that only sub-page allocations
    are made with interrupts disabled. It does this by setting a goal of
    "TTY_BUFFER_PAGE" to allocate. Unfortunately, while TTY_BUFFER_PAGE takes the
    size of tty_buffer into account, it fails to account that tty_buffer_find()
    rounds the buffer size out to the next 256 byte boundary before adding on
    the size of the tty_buffer.
    
    This patch adjusts the TTY_BUFFER_PAGE calculation to take into account the
    size of the tty_buffer and the padding. Once applied, tty_buffer_alloc()
    should not require high-order allocations.
