[PATCH 1/3] nvdimm/pmem: check the validity of the pointer pfn

[PATCH 1/3] nvdimm/pmem: check the validity of the pointer pfn

[Huaisheng Ye]

From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1@lenovo.com>

Some functions within fs/dax don't need to get gfn from direct_access.
Assigning NULL to gfn of dax_direct_access is more intuitive and simple
than offering a useless local variable.

So direct_access needs to check validity of the pointer pfn For NULL
assignment.

Yes, I like this too. In fact I have a similar patch in my tree
already that I have been preparing to send out. I am using it to delay
when we need to have the 'struct page' memmap for dax initialized.
Attached is the full patch, but the series is still a work in
progress.

Subject: [PATCH] dax: Elide pfn lookups

When not required, allow drivers to skip returning a pfn if one was not
requested. In support of asynchronous initialization of 'struct page'
there needs to be a sync point at which the memmap is made valid. The
latest point where the kernel can reasonably sync is when a pfn is being
used to populate userspace page tables. Otherwise, if only the kernel
address is needed from dax_direct_access(), typically in-kernel users,
then the 'pfn_t *' argument to dax_direct_access() can be NULL.

Yes, I like this too. In fact I have a similar patch in my tree
already that I have been preparing to send out. I am using it to delay
when we need to have the 'struct page' memmap for dax initialized.
Attached is the full patch, but the series is still a work in
progress.

Btw, I'll drop my version and apply your series since you got it
posted first and it can stand alone as its own cleanup.
