- * get_user_pages_locked() - variant of get_user_pages()
- *
- * @start: starting user address
- * @nr_pages: number of pages from start to pin
- * @gup_flags: flags modifying lookup behaviour
- * @pages: array that receives pointers to the pages pinned.
- * Should be at least nr_pages long. Or NULL, if caller
- * only intends to ensure the pages are faulted in.
- * @locked: pointer to lock flag indicating whether lock is held and
- * subsequently whether VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality can be
- * utilised. Lock must initially be held.
- *
- * It is suitable to replace the form:
- *
- * mmap_read_lock(mm);
- * do_something()
- * get_user_pages(mm, ..., pages, NULL);
- * mmap_read_unlock(mm);
- *
- * to:
- *
- * int locked = 1;
- * mmap_read_lock(mm);
- * do_something()
- * get_user_pages_locked(mm, ..., pages, &locked);
- * if (locked)
- * mmap_read_unlock(mm);
- *
- * We can leverage the VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality in the page fault
- * paths better by using either get_user_pages_locked() or
- * get_user_pages_unlocked().
