From 6f9e5c1702319e048a90e06e31b957fbbcecbe07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takuya Yoshikawa Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2010 14:36:09 +0900 Subject: KVM: use kmalloc() for small dirty bitmaps Currently we are using vmalloc() for all dirty bitmaps even if they are small enough, say less than K bytes. We use kmalloc() if dirty bitmap size is less than or equal to PAGE_SIZE so that we can avoid vmalloc area usage for VGA. This will also make the logging start/stop faster.
