Subject: [uml-devel] [ PATCH 0/6 ] UML - Finish host file I/O fix, page fault speedup
Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2007 12:28:02 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070412162802.GA7260@c2.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)

These are 2.6.22 material.

The first three finish getting rid of the bogus host file I/O code.
It turns out that all callers of the old code could have just used the
new code.  I don't know why I was unable to log in when I earlier just
did the quick and simple conversion.

Patch 4 removes some debugging code accidentally included in the
rewrite of the page table walking code.

Patch 5 is a bit of deadlock avoidance.

Patch 6 redoes the host side of page fault handling, with a noticable
performance improvement on a kernel build.
