[PATCH v3 6/7] hugetlb: parallelize 2M hugetlb allocation and initialization
Posted by Gang Li 1 year, 11 months ago
By distributing both the allocation and the initialization tasks across
multiple threads, the initialization of 2M hugetlb will be faster,
thereby improving the boot speed.

Here are some test results:
