[PATCH 0/4] Use folio APIs in procfs

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

 



Not sure whether Andrew or Christian will want to take this set of
fixes.  We're down to very few users of the PageFoo macros, with proc
being a major user.  After this patchset and another patchset I have
for khugepaged, we can get rid of PageActive, PageReadahead and
PageSwapBacked.

This patchset has the usual advantages in its own right of removing
hidden calls to compound_head().  We have the page table lock, so
the mapcount & refcount are stable and there can't be any races with
folios suddenly becoming tail pages.

Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) (4):
  proc: Convert gather_stats to use a folio
  proc: Convert smaps_page_accumulate to use a folio
  proc: Pass a folio to smaps_page_accumulate()
  proc: Convert smaps_pmd_entry to use a folio
