Subject: [PATCH 0/8] Various PageFlags cleanups
Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2018 21:31:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180414043145.3953-1-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com>
I was trying to understand how it was safe to test PageLocked on a tail
page and started looking at how the pageflag policies were implemented.
I found three actual bugs (patches 5, 7 & 8), improved the documentation
and renamed a pile of things to be more readily explainable.
Matthew Wilcox (8):
mm: Rename PF argument to modify
mm: Rename PF_NO_TAIL to PF_TAIL_READ
mm: Turn PF_POISONED_CHECK into CheckPageInit
mm: Improve page flag policy documentation
mm: Fix bug in page flags checking
mm: Turn page policies into functions
mm: Always check PagePolicyNoCompound
mm: Optimise PagePolicyTailRead
