[patch v2 3/4]thp: add tlb_remove_pmd_tlb_entry

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

 



We have tlb_remove_tlb_entry to indicate a pte tlb flush entry should be
flushed, but not a corresponding API for pmd entry. This isn't a problem so far
because THP is only for x86 currently and tlb_flush() under x86 will flush
entire TLB. But this is confusion and could be missed if thp is ported to
other arch.
Also converted tlb->need_flush = 1 to a VM_BUG_ON(!tlb->need_flush) in
__tlb_remove_page() as suggested by Andrea Arcangeli. __tlb_remove_page()
is supposed to be called after tlb_remove_xxx_tlb_entry() and we can catch
any misuse.
