From a1ea1c032b8f8c23d86ef4db6d061527e9417f19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Hansen Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2014 10:23:49 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86: Cleanly separate use of asm-generic/mm_hooks.h asm-generic/mm_hooks.h provides some generic fillers for the 90% of architectures that do not need to hook some mmap-manipulation functions. A comment inside says: > Define generic no-op hooks for arch_dup_mmap and > arch_exit_mmap, to be included in asm-FOO/mmu_context.h > for any arch FOO which doesn't need to hook these. So, does x86 need to hook these? It depends on CONFIG_PARAVIRT. We *conditionally* include this generic header if we have CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n. That's madness. With this patch, x86 stops using asm-generic/mmu_hooks.h entirely. We use our own copies of the functions. The paravirt code provides some stubs if it is disabled, and we always call those stubs in our x86-private versions of arch_exit_mmap() and arch_dup_mmap().
