Subject: [PATCH] cleanup vmalloc_fault for 64bit kernel
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2009 21:28:12 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090831132811.GA6924@desktop> (raw)
64bit kernel won't arrive vmalloc_fault, it's not necessary or possible
to copy the page table from init_mm.pgd. swapper_pg_dir, module_pg_dir
and the process's pgd represent the different virtual address area, and
the tlb exception handler accesses the suitable one directly.
