[PATCH 2/2] KVM: SVM: convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages()

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

 



This code was using get_user_pages*(), in a "Case 2" scenario
(DMA/RDMA), using the categorization from [1]. That means that it's
time to convert the get_user_pages*() + put_page() calls to
pin_user_pages*() + unpin_user_pages() calls.

There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small
part of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and
file systems' use of those pages.
