From: Mel Gorman Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2013 01:08:37 +0000 (-0800) Subject: mm: numa: do not clear PTE for pte_numa update X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0c5f83c23ca703d32f930393825487257a5cde6d;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git mm: numa: do not clear PTE for pte_numa update The TLB must be flushed if the PTE is updated but change_pte_range is clearing the PTE while marking PTEs pte_numa without necessarily flushing the TLB if it reinserts the same entry. Without the flush, it's conceivable that two processors have different TLBs for the same virtual address and at the very least it would generate spurious faults. This patch only unmaps the pages in change_pte_range for a full protection change.
