[RFC PATCH 2/4] mm: Change the interface for __tlb_remove_page

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

 



This update the generic and arch specific implementation to return true
if we need to do a tlb flush. That means if a __tlb_remove_page indicate
a flush is needed, the page we try to remove need to be tracked and
added again after the flush. We need to track it because we have already
update the pte to none and we can't just loop back.

This changes is done to enable us to do a tlb_flush when we try to flush
a range that consists of different page sizes. For architectures like
ppc64, we can do a range based tlb flush and we need to track page size
for that. When we try to remove a huge page, we will force a tlb flush
and starts a new mmu gather.
