Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Create 'old' ptes for faultaround mappings on arm64 with hardware access flag
Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2021 17:15:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210108171517.5290-1-will@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi all,
This is version two of the series I originally posted here:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201209163950.8494-1-will@kernel.org
The patches allow architectures to opt-in at runtime for faultaround
mappings to be created as 'old' instead of 'young'. Although there have
been previous attempts at this, they failed either because the decision
was deferred to userspace [1] or because it was done unconditionally and
shown to regress benchmarks for particular architectures [2].
The big difference in this version is that I have reworked it based on
Kirill's patch which he posted as a follow-up to the original. However,
I can't tell where we've landed on that -- Linus seemed to like it, but
Hugh was less enthusiastic. I think that my subsequent patches are an
awful lot cleaner after the rework, but I don't think I necessarily
depend on everything in there so if that patch is likely to be a
sticking point then I can try to extract the parts I need.
Feedback welcome.
Cheers,
Will
