sgi-gru: simplify procfs code

2018-05-16T05:24:30+00:00

Use remove_proc_subtree to remove the whole subtree on cleanup, and unwind the registration loop into individual calls. Switch to use proc_create_seq where applicable. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

misc: sgi-gru: Change return type to vm_fault_t

2018-05-14T14:25:52+00:00

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type.

mm, mmu_notifier: annotate mmu notifiers with blockable invalidate callbacks

2018-02-01T01:18:38+00:00

Commit 4d4bbd8526a8 ("mm, oom_reaper: skip mm structs with mmu notifiers") prevented the oom reaper from unmapping private anonymous memory with the oom reaper when the oom victim mm had mmu notifiers registered. The rationale is that doing mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_{start,end}() around the unmap_page_range(), which is needed, can block and the oom killer will stall forever waiting for the victim to exit, which may not be possible without reaping. That concern is real, but only true for mmu notifiers that have blockable invalidate_range_{start,end}() callbacks. This patch adds a "flags" field to mmu notifier ops that can set a bit to indicate that these callbacks do not block. The implementation is steered toward an expensive slowpath, such as after the oom reaper has grabbed mm->mmap_sem of a still alive oom victim.

sgi-gru: update to new mmu_notifier semantic

2017-08-31T23:13:00+00:00

Calls to mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() were replaced by calls to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() and are now bracketed by calls to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/end() Remove now useless invalidate_page callback.

mm: convert generic code to 5-level paging

2017-03-09T19:48:47+00:00

Convert all non-architecture-specific code to 5-level paging. It's mostly mechanical adding handling one more page table level in places where we deal with pud_t. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov Acked-by: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

mm, fs: reduce fault, page_mkwrite, and pfn_mkwrite to take only vmf

2017-02-25T01:46:54+00:00

->fault(), ->page_mkwrite(), and ->pfn_mkwrite() calls do not need to take a vma and vmf parameter when the vma already resides in vmf. Remove the vma parameter to simplify things.

mm: use vmf->address instead of of vmf->virtual_address

2016-12-15T00:04:09+00:00

Every single user of vmf->virtual_address typed that entry to unsigned long before doing anything with it so the type of virtual_address does not really provide us any additional safety. Just use masked vmf->address which already has the appropriate type. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1479460644-25076-3-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Acked-by: Kirill A.

mm: replace get_user_pages() write/force parameters with gup_flags

2016-10-19T15:11:43+00:00

This removes the 'write' and 'force' from get_user_pages() and replaces them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
