[PATCH v11 12/15] HMM: add dirty range helper (toggle dirty bit inside mirror page table) v2.

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

 



Device driver must properly toggle the dirty inside the mirror page table
so dirtyness is properly accounted when core mm code needs to know. Provide
a simple helper to toggle that bit for a range of address.

Changed since v1:
  - Adapt to HMM page table changes.
