[PATCH] mm/memory.c: Remove pte_sw_mkyoung()

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

 



Commit 83d116c53058 ("mm: fix double page fault on arm64 if PTE_AF
is cleared") introduced arch_faults_on_old_pte() helper to identify
platforms that don't set page access bit in HW and require a page
fault to set it.

Commit 44bf431b47b4 ("mm/memory.c: Add memory read privilege on page
fault handling") added pte_sw_mkyoung() which is yet another way to
manage platforms that don't set page access bit in HW and require a
page fault to set it.

Remove that pte_sw_mkyoung() helper and use the already existing
arch_faults_on_old_pte() helper together with pte_mkyoung() instead.
