[PATCH 0/3] Replace current->mm by kvm->mm on powerpc/kvm

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



By replacing, we would reduce the use of 'global' current on code,
relying more in the contents of kvm struct.

On code, I found that in kvm_create_vm() there is:
kvm->mm = current->mm;

And that on every kvm_*_ioctl we have tests like that:
if (kvm->mm != current->mm)
        return -EIO;

So this change would be safe.

I split the changes in 3 patches, so it would be easier to read
and reject separated parts. If decided that squashing is better,
I see no problem doing that.

Best regards,
