[patch 3/3] mm: memory: merge shared-writable dirtying branches in do_wp_page()

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

 



Whether there is a vm_ops->page_mkwrite or not, the page dirtying is
pretty much the same.  Make sure the page references are the same in
both cases, then merge the two branches.

It's tempting to go even further and page-lock the !page_mkwrite case,
to get it in line with everybody else setting the page table and thus
further simplify the model.  But that's not quite compelling enough to
justify dropping the pte lock, then relocking and verifying the entry
for filesystems without ->page_mkwrite, which notably includes tmpfs.
Leave it for now and lock the page late in the !page_mkwrite case.
