Almost right ;-)

Please have a look at Documentation/SubmittingPatches

We require at least a Signed-off-by: tag in order to process patches.

Thanks!

[PATCH] perf bench: fix order of arguments to memcpy_alloc_mem

2015-01-15 Thread Bruce Merry

As a result, the source was typically all mapped to one zero page,
and hence very cacheable
