Subject: [05/18] Page flags: Add PageVcompound()
Date: Wed, 03 Oct 2007 20:59:40 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071004040002.849512773@sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20071004035935.042951211@sgi.com
[-- Attachment #1: vcompound_pagevcompound --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1814 bytes --]
Add a another page flag that can be used to figure out if a compound
page is virtually mapped. The mark is necessary since we have to know
when freeing pages if we have to destroy a virtual mapping. No additional
flag is consumed through the use of PG_swapcache together with PG_compound
(similar to PageHead() and PageTail()).
