Update generic gup implementation with powerpc specific details. On powerpc at pmd level we can have hugepte, normal pmd pointer or a pointer to the hugepage directory. Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <redacted>
Hi, This patch causes compiler errors on arm and arm64 due to pgd_huge being undefined. I've attached a fixup below, this fixup will require that #define pgd_huge(pgd) 0 be added back into: arch/powerpc/include/asm/page.h For the second patch in this series. Another avenue would be to do something like: #ifndef pgd_huge #define pgd_huge(pgd) (0) #endif Then no changes would be required to arm and arm64 (or other architectures). To help with bisectability, could we please have a suitable fix applied to the two patches in the -mm tree: http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-update-generic-gup-implementation-to-handle-hugepage-directory.patch http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/arch-powerpc-switch-to-generic-rcu-get_user_pages_fast.patch rather than applied afterwards? With pgd_huge(x) defined, this patch passes my futex test on arm (Arndale platform) and arm64(Juno). Cheers, -- Steve
