[PATCH v2 4/4] x86/vmalloc: Add TLB efficient x86 arch_vunmap

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

 



This adds a more efficient x86 architecture specific implementation of
arch_vunmap, that can free any type of special permission memory with only 1 TLB
flush.

In order to enable this, _set_pages_p and _set_pages_np are made non-static and
renamed set_pages_p_noflush and set_pages_np_noflush to better communicate
their different (non-flushing) behavior from the rest of the set_pages_*
functions.

The method for doing this with only 1 TLB flush was suggested by Andy
Lutomirski.
