Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc()
Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2025 11:45:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1740454179.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> (raw)
Changes in v2:
- add [PATCH v2 2/6] (Peter Zijlstra)
- remove [PATCH 4/5] and add [PATCH v2 5/6]
- rebase onto the next-20250224
Hi all,
As suggested by Peter Zijlstra below [1], this series aims to remove
tlb_remove_page_ptdesc().
: Fundamentally tlb_remove_page() is about removing *pages* as from a PTE,
: there should not be a page-table anywhere near here *ever*.
:
: Yes, some architectures use tlb_remove_page() for page-tables too, but
: that is more or less an implementation detail that can be fixed.
After this series, all architectures use tlb_remove_table() or tlb_remove_ptdesc()
to remove the page table pages. In the future, once all architectures using
tlb_remove_table() have also converted to using struct ptdesc (eg. powerpc), it
may be possible to use only tlb_remove_ptdesc().
This series is based on next-20250224.
Comments and suggestions are welcome!
Thanks,
Qi
