There was some discussion around this starting here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190523172852.GA27175@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ And a resulting bug fix. https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/6/21/95 Ira > > One note below, for the future: > > > > > > > > This is a bunch of trivial conversions which is a part of an effort > > > by John Hubbard to solve issues with gup pinned pages and > > > filesystem writeback. > > > > > > The issue is more clearly described in John Hubbard's patch[1] where > > > put_user_page*() functions are introduced. > > > > > > Currently put_user_page*() simply does put_page but future implementations > > > look to change that once treewide change of put_page callsites to > > > put_user_page*() is finished. > > > > > > The lwn article describing the issue with gup pinned pages and filesystem > > > writeback [2]. > > > > > > This patch has been tested by building and booting the kernel as I don't > > > have the required hardware to test the device drivers. > > > > > > I did not modify gpu/drm drivers which use release_pages instead of > > > put_page() to release reference of gup pinned pages as I am not clear > > > whether release_pages and put_page are interchangable. > > > > > > [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/26/1396 > > > > When referring to patches in a commit description, please use the > > commit hash, not an external link.
