Subject: [PATCH 12/17] x86, mpx: Add temporary variable to reduce masking
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2015 11:27:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150422182745.741CDC2F@viggo.jf.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150422182729.0512E57D@viggo.jf.intel.com>
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
When we allocate a bounds table, we call mmap(), then add a
"valid" bit to the value before storing it in to the bounds
directory.
If we fail along the way, we go and mask that valid bit
_back_ out. That seems a little silly, and this makes it
much more clear when we have a plain address versus an
actual table _entry_.
