Subject: [PATCH 01/17] mm/highmem: Lift memcpy_[to|from]_page and memset_page to core
From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@...el.com>
Working through a conversion to a call such as kmap_thread() revealed
many places where the pattern kmap/memcpy/kunmap occurred.
Eric Biggers, Matthew Wilcox, Christoph Hellwig, Dan Williams, and Al
Viro all suggested putting this code into helper functions. Al Viro
further pointed out that these functions already existed in the iov_iter
code.[1]
Placing these functions in 'highmem.h' is suboptimal especially with the
changes being proposed in the functionality of kmap. From a caller
perspective including/using 'highmem.h' implies that the functions
defined in that header are only required when highmem is in use which is
increasingly not the case with modern processors. Some headers like
mm.h or string.h seem ok but don't really portray the functionality
well. 'pagemap.h', on the other hand, makes sense and is already
included in many of the places we want to convert.
Another alternative would be to create a new header for the promoted
memcpy functions, but it masks the fact that these are designed to copy
to/from pages using the kernel direct mappings and complicates matters
with a new header.
Lift memcpy_to_page(), memcpy_from_page(), and memzero_page() to
pagemap.h.
Also, add a memcpy_page(), memmove_page, and memset_page() to cover more
kmap/mem*/kunmap. patterns.
