[PATCH] x86/memory: Drop pud_mknotpresent()

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

 



There is an inconsistency between PMD and PUD based THP page table helpers
like the following, as pud_present() does not test for _PAGE_PSE.

pmd_present(pmd_mknotpresent(pmd)) : True
pud_present(pud_mknotpresent(pud)) : False

This drops pud_mknotpresent() as there are no current users. If/when needed
back later, pud_present() will also have to fixed to accommodate _PAGE_PSE.
