[PATCH] mmu_gather: move minimal range calculations into generic code

From: Will Deacon
Date: Fri Nov 14 2014 - 12:10:53 EST


On architectures with hardware broadcasting of TLB invalidation messages
, it makes sense to reduce the range of the mmu_gather structure when
unmapping page ranges based on the dirty address information passed to
tlb_remove_tlb_entry.

arm64 already does this by directly manipulating the start/end fields
of the gather structure, but this confuses the generic code which
does not expect these fields to change and can end up calculating
invalid, negative ranges when forcing a flush in zap_pte_range.

This patch moves the minimal range calculation out of the arm64 code
and into the generic implementation, simplifying zap_pte_range in the
process (which no longer needs to care about start/end, since they will
point to the appropriate ranges already). With the range being tracked
by core code, the need_flush flag is dropped in favour of checking that
the end of the range has actually been set.

Hi all,

Just a heads up that I plan to drop this into -next early next week as
part of the arm64 queue for 3.19. It's been on LKML in two parts already,
but please holler if you spot any issues.
