Subject: [RFC PATCH V4 6/7] arm64: mm: Enable HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE logic
Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2014 15:01:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1396018892-6773-7-git-send-email-steve.capper@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1396018892-6773-1-git-send-email-steve.capper@linaro.org>
In order to implement fast_get_user_pages we need to ensure that the
page table walker is protected from page table pages being freed from
under it.
This patch enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE, any page table pages belonging
to address spaces with multiple users will be call_rcu_sched freed.
Meaning that disabling interrupts will block the free and protect the
fast gup page walker.
