[PATCH v7 13/18] mm: Add fast_only bool to test_young and clear_young MMU notifiers

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

 



For implementers, the fast_only bool indicates that the age information
needs to be harvested such that we do not slow down other MMU operations,
and ideally that we are not ourselves slowed down by other MMU
operations.  Usually this means that the implementation should be
lockless.

Also add mmu_notifier_test_young_fast_only() and
mmu_notifier_clear_young_fast_only() helpers to set fast_only for these
notifiers.
