From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Nick Piggin Message-Id: <20061010121314.19693.75503.sendpatchset@linux.site> Subject: [rfc] 2.6.19-rc1-git5: consolidation of file backed fault handlers Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2006 16:21:32 +0200 (CEST) Sender: owner-linux-mm@kvack.org Return-Path: To: Linux Memory Management , Andrew Morton Cc: Linux Kernel , Nick Piggin List-ID: This patchset is against 2.6.19-rc1-mm1 up to numa-add-zone_to_nid-function-swap_prefetch.patch (ie. no readahead stuff, which causes big rejects and would be much easier to fix in readahead patches than here). Other than this feature, the -mm specific stuff is pretty simple (mainly straightforward filesystem conversions). Changes since last round: - trimmed the cc list, no big changes since last time. - fix the few buglets preventing it from actually booting - reinstate filemap_nopage and filemap_populate, because they're exported symbols even though no longer used in the tree. Schedule for removal. - initialise fault_data one field at a time (akpm) - change prototype of ->fault so it takes a vma (hch) Has passed an allyesconfig on G5, and booted and stress tested (on ext3 and tmpfs) on 2x P4 Xeon with my userspace tester (which I will send in a reply to this email). (stress tests run with the set_page_dirty_buffers fix that is upstream). Please apply.
