Subject: [PATCH 05/10] ksm: no debug in page_dup_rmap()
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2009 20:30:45 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1247851850-4298-6-git-send-email-ieidus@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1247851850-4298-5-git-send-email-ieidus@redhat.com>

From: Hugh Dickins <hugh.dickins@tiscali.co.uk>

page_dup_rmap(), used on each mapped page when forking,  was originally
just an inline atomic_inc of mapcount.  2.6.22 added CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
out-of-line checks to it, which would need to be ever-so-slightly
complicated to allow for the PageKsm() we're about to define.

But I think these checks never caught anything.  And if it's coding
errors we're worried about, such checks should be in page_remove_rmap()
too, not just when forking; whereas if it's pagetable corruption we're
worried about, then they shouldn't be limited to CONFIG_DEBUG_VM.

Oh, just revert page_dup_rmap() to an inline atomic_inc of mapcount.
