Subject: [PATCH 3/5] mm/gup: add gup_fill_pages() and use it
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 23:15:38 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260801031540.2742891-4-riel@surriel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260801031540.2742891-1-riel@surriel.com>
follow_huge_pud(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_page_pte_commit() each
store the page they found into pages[0] and flush its caches with the
same three lines.
Add a gup_fill_pages() helper for that, and call it from all three
instead of repeating the loop.
No functional changes intended.
