Subject: do_swap_page() and !CONFIG_SWAP
Date: Sun, 22 Jul 2007 15:58:48 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070722125848.GA6182@localdomain> (raw)
Hello,
Is there any valid reason (except memory corruption) for do_swap_page()
to be called in a x86_64 2.6.21.5 kernel where CONFIG_SWAP is not selected?
If not, does it make sense to put there something in lines of:
print_bad_pte(vma, orig_pte, address);
panic("unexpected swap pte - possible page table memory corruption\n");
?
