[PATCH 4/4] mm: vmalloc: convert vread() to vread_iter()

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

 



Having previously laid the foundation for converting vread() to an iterator
function, pull the trigger and do so.

This patch attempts to provide minimal refactoring and to reflect the
existing logic as best we can, with the exception of aligned_vread_iter()
which drops the use of the deprecated kmap_atomic() in favour of
kmap_local_page().

All existing logic to zero portions of memory not read remain and there
should be no functional difference other than a performance improvement in
/proc/kcore access to vmalloc regions.

Now we have discarded with the need for a bounce buffer at all in
read_kcore_iter(), we dispense with the one allocated there altogether.
