From: Hugh Dickins Date: Sat, 16 Jun 2007 17:15:59 +0000 (-0700) Subject: i386 mm: use pte_update() in ptep_test_and_clear_dirty() X-Git-Tag: v2.6.22-rc5~17 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d6f8bb1310d4745ff1d0c74eeacae31e2a3eeff1;p=linux-2.6 i386 mm: use pte_update() in ptep_test_and_clear_dirty() It is not safe to use pte_update_defer() in ptep_test_and_clear_young(): its only user, /proc//clear_refs, drops pte lock before flushing TLB. Use the safe though less efficient pte_update() paravirtop in its place. Likewise in ptep_test_and_clear_dirty(), though that has no current use. These are macros (header file dependency stops them from becoming inline functions), so be more liberal with the underscores and parentheses.
