Subject: follow_page gone?
Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2003 03:13:33 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F6AAC9D.9010202@klozoff.com> (raw)
It would appear that, starting with 2.4.19, follow_page -- a fairly friendly way
to get the struct page backing a virtual address (as in vmalloc virtual) -- has
been removed from mm.h and made static to mm/memory.c. LXR shows that this
function was present in 2.4.18; the Changelog doesn't seem to mention anything
about this (although I may have missed something, Changelog-2.4.19 is over
100KB). Is there a new way to do this?
Furthermore, is all of this stuff documented somewhere other than the various
comments in the kernel source?
