[RFC PATCH V4 6/7] arm64: mm: Enable HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE logic

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

 



In order to implement fast_get_user_pages we need to ensure that the
page table walker is protected from page table pages being freed from
under it.

This patch enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE, any page table pages belonging
to address spaces with multiple users will be call_rcu_sched freed.
Meaning that disabling interrupts will block the free and protect the
fast gup page walker.
