revamp vmem_altmap / dev_pagemap handling

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

 



Hi all,

this series started with two patches from Logan that now are in the
middle of the series to kill the memremap-internal pgmap structure
and to redo the dev_memreamp_pages interface to be better suitable
for future PCI P2P uses.  I reviewed them and noticed that there
isn't really any good reason to keep struct vmem_altmap either,
and that a lot of these alternative device page map access should
be better abstracted out instead of being sprinkled all over the
mm code.

Please review carefully, this has only been tested with my legacy
e820 NVDIMM system.
