Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] sgi-gru: Use __get_user_pages_fast in atomic_pte_lookup
Date: Wed, 24 Jul 2019 17:11:16 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1563968476-12785-4-git-send-email-linux.bhar@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1563968476-12785-1-git-send-email-linux.bhar@gmail.com>

*pte_lookup functions get the physical address for a given virtual
address by getting a physical page using gup and use page_to_phys to get
the physical address.

Currently, atomic_pte_lookup manually walks the page tables. If this
function fails to get a physical page, it will fall back too
non_atomic_pte_lookup to get a physical page which uses the slow gup
path to get the physical page.

Instead of manually walking the page tables use __get_user_pages_fast
which does the same thing and it does not fall back to the slow gup
path.

Also, the function atomic_pte_lookup's return value has been changed to boolean.
The callsites have been appropriately modified.

This is largely inspired from kvm code. kvm uses __get_user_pages_fast
in hva_to_pfn_fast function which can run in an atomic context.

Changes since v2
	- Modified the return value of atomic_pte_lookup
	to use booleans rather than numeric values.
	This was suggested by John Hubbard.
