Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ARM: mm: ensure pmd_present only checks the valid bit
Date: Tue, 31 May 2016 17:37:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464712660-25177-2-git-send-email-catalin.marinas@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1464712660-25177-1-git-send-email-catalin.marinas@arm.com>
From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
In a subsequent patch, pmd_mknotpresent will clear the valid bit of the
pmd entry, resulting in a not-present entry from the hardware's
perspective. Unfortunately, pmd_present simply checks for a non-zero pmd
value and will therefore continue to return true even after a
pmd_mknotpresent operation. Since pmd_mknotpresent is only used for
managing huge entries, this is only an issue for the 3-level case.
This patch fixes the 3-level pmd_present implementation to take into
account the valid bit. For bisectability, the change is made before the
fix to pmd_mknotpresent.
Fixes: 8d9625070073 ("ARM: mm: Transparent huge page support for LPAE systems.")
