Note that I kept this API from Nanyong for the sake of discussion.
What I actually plan to test in our production is:
#define vmemmap_update_pte_range_start vmemmap_update_pte_range_start
static inline void vmemmap_update_pte_range_start(pte_t *pte,
unsigned long start,
unsigned long end)
{
preempt_disable();
pause_remote_cpus();
for (; start != end; start += PAGE_SIZE, pte++)
pte_clear(&init_mm, start, pte);
flush_tlb_kernel_range(start, end);
}
#define vmemmap_update_pte_range_end vmemmap_update_pte_range_end
static inline void vmemmap_update_pte_range_end(void)
{
resume_remote_cpus();
preempt_enable();
}
