Subject: PG_dirty bit
Date: Thu, 4 May 2000 13:58:53 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA2568D5.002F65EE.00@d73mta05.au.ibm.com> (raw)

In try_to_swap_out () after the page is found to be dirty it is swapped
out.
One of the comments there says that it should just set the dirty bit in
page_map and drop pte .
But in the code I could not find anywhere PG_dirty flag being set in
page_map.
Or there is some magic involved ?
If I have missed out something please enlighten me.
