[PATCH v2 0/2] mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers and utilize them

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

 



From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@xxxxxxxx>

This patchset introduces the pte_need_soft_dirty_wp and pmd_need_soft_dirty_wp
helpers to determine if write protection is required for softdirty tracking.
These helpers enhance code readability and improve the overall appearance.

They are then utilized in gup, mprotect, swap, and other related functions.

-v2:
 * rename "need" to "needs" per David;
 * separate the change of do_swap_page() per david;

Thanks to David for his original suggestions on this[1].
