Subject: [patch -mm 1/2] i386: add ptep_test_and_clear_{dirty,young}
Date: Sun, 25 Mar 2007 17:35:46 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0703251731040.19025@chino.kir.corp.google.com> (raw)

Add ptep_test_and_clear_{dirty,young} to i386.  They advertise that they
have it and there is at least one place where it needs to be called
without the page table lock: to clear the accessed bit on write to
/proc/pid/clear_refs.

ptep_clear_flush_{dirty,young} are updated to use the new functions.  The
overall net effect to current users of ptep_clear_flush_{dirty,young} is
that we introduce an additional branch.
