[PATCHv3 1/2] mm: rearrange madvise code to allow for reuse

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

 



This patch refactors the madvise syscall to allow for parts of it
to be reused by a prctl syscall that affects vmas.

Move the code that walks vmas in a virtual address range into a
function that takes a function pointer as a parameter.  The only
caller for now is sys_madvise, which uses it to call
madvise_vma_behavior on each vma, but the next patch will add
an additional caller.

Move handling all vma behaviors inside madvise_behavior, and
rename it to madvise_vma_behavior.

Move the code that updates the flags on a vma, including splitting
or merging the vma as necessary, into a new function called
madvise_update_vma.  The next patch will add support for updating
a new anon_name field as well.
