The patch titled Subject: IB/umem: use get_user_pages_fast() to pin DMA pages has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is ib-umem-use-get_user_pages_fast-to-pin-dma-pages.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/ib-umem-use-get_user_pages_fast-to-pin-dma-pages.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/ib-umem-use-get_user_pages_fast-to-pin-dma-pages.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/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: IB/umem: use get_user_pages_fast() to pin DMA pages And get rid of the mmap_sem calls, as part of that. Note that get_user_pages_fast() will, if necessary, fall back to __gup_longterm_unlocked(), which takes the mmap_sem as needed.
