Subject: [BUGFIX][PATCH -tip] x86: fix text_poke to handle highmem pages
Date: Mon, 06 Apr 2009 13:11:39 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49DA37CB.4020901@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <49D82987.5090003@redhat.com>
Fix a bug in text_poke to handle highmem pages, because module
text pages are possible to be highmem pages on x86-32.
In that case, since fixmap can't handle those pages, text_poke
uses kmap_atomic.
Moreover, module_text pages will be discontinuous and it is
possible that one page is lowmem and another page is highmem,
because it is allocated by vmalloc. To handle this situation,
text_poke splits poke area into two pieces and write the areas
page by page.

Here is A) patch.
