The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/memory: detect writability in restore_exclusive_pte() through can_change_pte_writable() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memory-detect-writability-in-restore_exclusive_pte-through-can_change_pte_writable.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/memory: detect writability in restore_exclusive_pte() through can_change_pte_writable() Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2025 20:37:47 +0100 Let's do it just like mprotect write-upgrade or during NUMA-hinting faults on PROT_NONE PTEs: detect if the PTE can be writable by using can_change_pte_writable(). Set the PTE only dirty if the folio is dirty: we might not necessarily have a write access, and setting the PTE writable doesn't require setting the PTE dirty.
