[PATCH v2 10/10] mm/page-flags: change the implementation of the PageHighMem()

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

 



From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>

Until now, PageHighMem() is used for two different cases. One is to check
if there is a direct mapping for this page or not. The other is to check
the zone of this page, that is, weather it is the highmem type zone or not.

Previous patches introduce PageHighMemZone() macro and separates both
cases strictly. So, now, PageHighMem() is used just for checking if
there is a direct mapping for this page or not.

In the following patchset, ZONE_MOVABLE which could be considered as
the highmem type zone in some configuration could have both types of
pages, direct mapped pages and unmapped pages. So, current implementation
of PageHighMem() that checks the zone rather than checks the page in order
to check if a direct mapping exists will be invalid. This patch prepares
that case by implementing PageHighMem() with the max_low_pfn.
