[PATCH] uprobes: Use the bitmap API to allocate bitmaps

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

 



Use bitmap_zalloc()/bitmap_free() instead of hand-writing them.

It is less verbose and it improves the semantic.

Out of curiosity, is it normal to have __free_page() in the error handling
path of __create_xol_area() and put_page() in uprobe_clear_state()?

uprobe_clear_state() seems to release the resources allocated in
__create_xol_area(), but the implementation of __free_page() and of
put_page() look quite different.

This is maybe perfectly correct, but looks odd to me.
