[PATCH 0/4] munmap() vs unmap_mapping_range()

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

 



Hi,

These 4 patches implement the suggestion by Linus.

The first patch nukes all architecture implementations of tlb_{start,end}_vma()
by adding two additional MMU_GATHER config knobs.

DaveM, please clarify the sparc64 case, it seems a little odd to have
flush_cache_range() but to explicitly not call it at unmap time. It would be
nice to remove this one special case.

The second patch isn't strictly needed for this series but since I was looking
at all this, I figured C-SKY didn't make a whole lot of sense. Guo, please
have a look.

The third patch cleans up the #ifdeffery and provides a single
tlb_{start,end}_vma() implementation for everyone.

The fourth, and final, patch does the force TLB-flush on VM_PFNMAP thing.

I've had the first three patches exposed to the robots and they've (so far) not
reported build (or other) fail.
