[Xen-devel] [RESEND PATCH 0/7] Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it

[ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx]

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>

Resending these as I had only 1 minor comment which I believe we have covered
in this series.  I was anticipating these going through the mm tree as they
depend on a cleanup patch there and the IB changes are very minor.  But they
could just as well go through the IB tree.

NOTE: This series depends on my clean up patch to remove the write parameter
from gup_fast_permitted()[1]

HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to it performance
advantages.  These pages can be held for a significant time.  But
get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping of FS DAX pages.

Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which
retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks.  XDP has also
shown interest in using this functionality.[2]

In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag and
remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call.

Ira Weiny (7):
  mm/gup: Replace get_user_pages_longterm() with FOLL_LONGTERM
  mm/gup: Change write parameter to flags in fast walk
  mm/gup: Change GUP fast to use flags rather than a write 'bool'
  mm/gup: Add FOLL_LONGTERM capability to GUP fast
  IB/hfi1: Use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag to get_user_pages_fast()
  IB/qib: Use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag to get_user_pages_fast()
  IB/mthca: Use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag to get_user_pages_fast()
