Subject: [PATCH] staging: zcache: fix highmem crash on 32-bit
Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 11:06:30 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1314115590-20942-1-git-send-email-sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
After commit 966b9016a1, zcache_put_page() was modified to pass
page_address(page) instead of the actual page pointer. In
combination with the function signature changes to tmem_put()
and zcache_pampd_create(), zcache_pampd_create() tries to (re)derive
the page structure from the virtual address. However, if the
original page is a high memory page (or any unmapped page),
this virt_to_page() fails because the page_address() in
zcache_put_page() returned NULL.
This patch changes zcache_put_page() and zcache_get_page() to pass
the page structure instead of the page's virtual address, which
may or may not exist.
