Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] x86, mm: Handle large PAT bit in pud/pmd interfaces
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:23:51 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436977435-31826-1-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hp.com> (raw)
The PAT bit gets relocated to bit 12 when PUD and PMD mappings are used.
This bit 12, however, is not covered by PTE_FLAGS_MASK, which is corrently
used for masking pfn and flags for all cases.
Patch 1/4-2/4 make changes necessary for patch 3/4 to use P?D_PAGE_MASK.
Patch 3/4 fixes pud/pmd interfaces to handle the PAT bit when PUD and PMD
mappings are used.
Patch 3/4 fixes /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables to show the PAT bit
properly.
Note, the PAT bit is first enabled in 4.2-rc1 with WT mappings.

v2:
- Change p?n_pfn() to handle the PAT bit. (Juergen Gross)
- Mask pfn and flags with P?D_PAGE_MASK. (Juergen Gross)
- Change p?d_page_vaddr() and p?d_page() to handle the PAT bit.
