[PATCH v11 02/10] mm, swap: Add infrastructure for saving page metadata on swap

Khalid Aziz
2018-02-01T18:03:42Z

If a processor supports special metadata for a page, for example ADI
version tags on SPARC M7, this metadata must be saved when the page is
swapped out. The same metadata must be restored when the page is swapped
back in. This patch adds two new architecture specific functions -
arch_do_swap_page() to be called when a page is swapped in, and
arch_unmap_one() to be called when a page is being unmapped for swap
out. These architecture hooks allow page metadata to be saved if the
architecture supports it.

v8:
- Fixed an erroneous "}"
v6:
- Updated parameter list for arch_do_swap_page() and
arch_unmap_one()
v5:
- Replaced set_swp_pte() function with new architecture
functions arch_do_swap_page() and arch_unmap_one()
