Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/64s/radix: Fix soft dirty tracking
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
It was reported that soft dirty tracking doesn't work when using the
Radix MMU.
The tracking is supposed to work by clearing the soft dirty bit for a
mapping and then write protecting the PTE. If/when the page is written
to, a page fault occurs and the soft dirty bit is added back via
pte_mkdirty(). For example in wp_page_reuse():
entry = maybe_mkwrite(pte_mkdirty(entry), vma);
if (ptep_set_access_flags(vma, vmf->address, vmf->pte, entry, 1))
update_mmu_cache(vma, vmf->address, vmf->pte);
Unfortunately on radix _PAGE_SOFTDIRTY is being dropped by
radix__ptep_set_access_flags(), called from ptep_set_access_flags(),
meaning the soft dirty bit is not set even though the page has been
written to.
Fix it by adding _PAGE_SOFTDIRTY to the set of bits that are able to be
changed in radix__ptep_set_access_flags().
