      [PATCH] mm: tlb_is_full_mm was obscure · 4d6ddfa9
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      tlb_is_full_mm?  What does that mean?  The TLB is full?  No, it means that the
      mm's last user has gone and the whole mm is being torn down.  And it's an
      inline function because sparc64 uses a different (slightly better)
      "tlb_frozen" name for the flag others call "fullmm".
      
      And now the ptep_get_and_clear_full macro used in zap_pte_range refers
      directly to tlb->fullmm, which would be wrong for sparc64.  Rather than
      correct that, I'd prefer to scrap tlb_is_full_mm altogether, and change
      sparc64 to just use the same poor name as everyone else - is that okay?

      [PATCH] mm: tlb_gather_mmu get_cpu_var · 15a23ffa
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      tlb_gather_mmu dates from before kernel preemption was allowed, and uses
      smp_processor_id or __get_cpu_var to find its per-cpu mmu_gather.  That works
      because it's currently only called after getting page_table_lock, which is not
      dropped until after the matching tlb_finish_mmu.  But don't rely on that, it
      will soon change: now disable preemption internally by proper get_cpu_var in
      tlb_gather_mmu, put_cpu_var in tlb_finish_mmu.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
