[PATCH 4.4 038/107] x86/mm: Give each mm TLB flush generation a unique ID

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

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f39681ed0f48498b80455095376f11535feea332 upstream.

This adds two new variables to mmu_context_t: ctx_id and tlb_gen.
ctx_id uniquely identifies the mm_struct and will never be reused.
For a given mm_struct (and hence ctx_id), tlb_gen is a monotonic
count of the number of times that a TLB flush has been requested.
The pair (ctx_id, tlb_gen) can be used as an identifier for TLB
flush actions and will be used in subsequent patches to reliably
determine whether all needed TLB flushes have occurred on a given
CPU.

This patch is split out for ease of review.  By itself, it has no
real effect other than creating and updating the new variables.
