[PATCH/RFC] remove flush_tlb_pgtables

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After my frv patch, nobody uses flush_tlb_pgtables anymore, this patch
removes all remaining traces of it from all archs.

Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[email protected]>

This is part of a couple of pre-reqs cleanup for my mmu_gather work,
which makes things easier later on. I'll do more cleanup afterward, such
as removing flush_tlb_all() which isn't used anymore, etc...

-   The software page tables for address space 'mm' for virtual
-   addresses in the range 'start' to 'end-1' are being torn down.
-
-   Some platforms cache the lowest level of the software page tables
-   in a linear virtually mapped array, to make TLB miss processing
-   more efficient.  On such platforms, since the TLB is caching the
-   software page table structure, it needs to be flushed when parts
-   of the software page table tree are unlinked/freed.
-
-   Sparc64 is one example of a platform which does this.
-
-   Usually, when munmap()'ing an area of user virtual address
-   space, the kernel leaves the page table parts around and just
-   marks the individual pte's as invalid.  However, if very large
-   portions of the address space are unmapped, the kernel frees up
-   those portions of the software page tables to prevent potential
-   excessive kernel memory usage caused by erratic mmap/mmunmap
-   sequences.  It is at these times that flush_tlb_pgtables will
-   be invoked.
