[RFC 02/11] mm: add pmd_mkclean()

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

 



Currently PMD pages can be dirtied via pmd_mkdirty(), but cannot be
cleaned.  For DAX mmap dirty page tracking we need to be able to clean PMD
pages when we flush them to media so that we get a new write fault the next
time the are written to.
