[PATCH V3] mm: convert rcu_read_lock() to srcu_read_lock(), thus allowing to sleep in callbacks

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

 



Now that anon_vma lock and i_mmap_mutex are both sleepable mutex, it is possible to schedule inside invalidation callbacks
(such as invalidate_page, invalidate_range_start/end and change_pte) .
This is essential for a scheduling HW sync in RDMA drivers which apply on demand paging methods.
