[Linux-kernel-mentees][PATCH v4 0/1] get_user_pages changes

[Bharath Vedartham]

In this 4th version of the patch series, I have compressed the patches
of the v2 patch series into one patch. This was suggested by Christoph Hellwig.
The suggestion was to remove the pte_lookup functions and use the 
get_user_pages* functions directly instead of the pte_lookup functions.

There is nothing different in this series compared to the previous
series, It essentially compresses the 3 patches of the original series
into one patch.

This series survives a compile test.

[Linux-kernel-mentees][PATCH v4 1/1] sgi-gru: Remove *pte_lookup functions

[Bharath Vedartham]

The *pte_lookup functions can be removed and be easily replaced with
get_user_pages_fast functions. In the case of atomic lookup,
__get_user_pages_fast is used which does not fall back to slow
get_user_pages. get_user_pages_fast on the other hand tries to use
__get_user_pages_fast but fallbacks to slow get_user_pages if
__get_user_pages_fast fails.

Also unnecessary ifdefs to check for CONFIG_HUGETLB is removed as the
check is redundant.

Why are you no longer setting *pageshift? There are a couple of callers
that both use this variable.

...and once that's figured out, I can fix it up here and send it up with 
the next misc callsites series. I'm also inclined to make the commit
log read more like this:

sgi-gru: Remove *pte_lookup functions, convert to put_user_page*()

For pages that were retained via get_user_pages*(), release those pages
via the new put_user_page*() routines, instead of via put_page() or
release_pages().

This is part a tree-wide conversion, as described in commit fc1d8e7cca2d
("mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions").

As part of this conversion, the *pte_lookup functions can be removed and
be easily replaced with get_user_pages_fast() functions. In the case of
atomic lookup, __get_user_pages_fast() is used, because it does not fall
back to the slow path: get_user_pages(). get_user_pages_fast(), on the other
hand, first calls __get_user_pages_fast(), but then falls back to the
slow path if __get_user_pages_fast() fails.

Also: remove unnecessary CONFIG_HUGETLB ifdefs.

Hi John,

I did set *pageshift. The if statement above sets *pageshift. ps was
used to retrive the pageshift value when the pte_lookup functions were
present. ps was passed by reference to those functions and set by them.
But here since we are trying to remove those functions, we don't need ps
and we directly set *pageshift to HPAGE_SHIFT or PAGE_SHIFT based on the
type of vma. 

Hope this clears things up?

Hi John,

I did set *pageshift. The if statement above sets *pageshift. ps was
used to retrive the pageshift value when the pte_lookup functions were
present. ps was passed by reference to those functions and set by them.
But here since we are trying to remove those functions, we don't need ps
and we directly set *pageshift to HPAGE_SHIFT or PAGE_SHIFT based on the
type of vma. 

Hope this clears things up?

[Linux-kernel-mentees][PATCH v4 0/1] get_user_pages changes

[Bharath Vedartham]

In this 4th version of the patch series, I have compressed the patches
of the v2 patch series into one patch. This was suggested by Christoph Hellwig.
The suggestion was to remove the pte_lookup functions and use the 
get_user_pages* functions directly instead of the pte_lookup functions.

There is nothing different in this series compared to the previous
series, It essentially compresses the 3 patches of the original series
into one patch.

[Linux-kernel-mentees][PATCH v4 1/1] sgi-gru: Remove *pte_lookup functions

[Bharath Vedartham]

The *pte_lookup functions can be removed and be easily replaced with
get_user_pages_fast functions. In the case of atomic lookup,
__get_user_pages_fast is used which does not fall back to slow
get_user_pages. get_user_pages_fast on the other hand tries to use
__get_user_pages_fast but fallbacks to slow get_user_pages if
__get_user_pages_fast fails.

Also unnecessary ifdefs to check for CONFIG_HUGETLB is removed as the
check is redundant.

This is a fold of the 3 patches in the v2 patch series.
The review tags were given to the individual patches.

Changes since v3
	- Used gup flags in get_user_pages_fast rather than
	boolean flags.

[Linux-kernel-mentees] [PATCH v4 1/1] sgi-gru: Remove *pte_lookup functions

[Bharath Vedartham]

The *pte_lookup functions can be removed and be easily replaced with
get_user_pages_fast functions. In the case of atomic lookup,
__get_user_pages_fast is used which does not fall back to slow
get_user_pages. get_user_pages_fast on the other hand tries to use
__get_user_pages_fast but fallbacks to slow get_user_pages if
__get_user_pages_fast fails.

Also unnecessary ifdefs to check for CONFIG_HUGETLB is removed as the
check is redundant.
