The patch titled Subject: mm/xip: share the i_mmap_rwsem has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-xip-share-the-i_mmap_rwsem.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-xip-share-the-i_mmap_rwsem.patch echo and later at echo http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-xip-share-the-i_mmap_rwsem.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/xip: share the i_mmap_rwsem __xip_unmap() will remove the xip sparse page from the cache and take down pte mapping, without altering the interval tree, thus share the i_mmap_rwsem when searching for the ptes to unmap. Additionally, tidy up the function a bit and make variables only local to the interval tree walk loop. Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@xxxxxxx> Acked-by: Kirill A.
