Looks like sum_vm_events() is only ever called from all_vm_events(). Callers of all_vm_events(): App monitoring? arch/s390/appldata/appldata_mem.c: all_vm_events(ev); Leds: drivers/parisc/led.c: all_vm_events(events); proc out put for /proc/vmstat: mm/vmstat.c: all_vm_events(e); All of that does not seem to be performance critical - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
