Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: kpc2000: Convert put_page() to put_user_page*()
Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2019 03:19:26 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190715214926.GA29665@bharath12345-Inspiron-5559> (raw)

There have been issues with get_user_pages and filesystem writeback.
The issues are better described in [1].

The solution being proposed wants to keep track of gup_pinned pages
which will allow to take furthur steps to coordinate between subsystems
using gup.

put_user_page() simply calls put_page inside for now. But the
implementation will change once all call sites of put_page() are
converted.

Changes since v1
	- Added John's reviewed-by tag
	- Moved para talking about testing below
	the '---'
	- Moved logic of set_page_diry below dma_unmap_sg
	as per John's suggestion

I currently do not have the driver to test. Could I have some
suggestions to test this code? The solution is currently implemented
in https://github.com/johnhubbard/linux/tree/gup_dma_core and it would be great 
if we could apply the patch on top of the repo and run some 
tests to check if any regressions occur.
