Subject: [PATCH 0/3] mtrr, mm, x86: Enhance MTRR checks for huge I/O mapping
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2015 14:23:14 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426018997-12936-1-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hp.com> (raw)
This patchset enhances MTRR checks for the kernel huge I/O mapping,
which was enabled by the patchset below:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/3/589
The following functional changes are made in patch 3/3.
- Allow pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() to create a huge page
mapping to a range covered by a single MTRR entry of any memory
type.
- Log a pr_warn() message when a requested PMD map range spans more
than a single MTRR entry. Drivers should make a mapping request
aligned to a single MTRR entry when the range is covered by MTRRs.
Patch 1/3 addresses other review comments to the mapping funcs for
better code read-ability. Patch 2/3 fixes a bug in mtrr_type_lookup().
The patchset is based on the -mm tree.
