From d7271b14b2e9e5905aba0fbf5c4dc4f8980c0cb2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zachary Amsden Date: Sat, 3 Sep 2005 15:56:50 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] i386: encapsulate copying of pgd entries Add a clone operation for pgd updates. This helps complete the encapsulation of updates to page tables (or pages about to become page tables) into accessor functions rather than using memcpy() to duplicate them. This is both generally good for consistency and also necessary for running in a hypervisor which requires explicit updates to page table entries. The new function is: clone_pgd_range(pgd_t *dst, pgd_t *src, int count); dst - pointer to pgd range anwhere on a pgd page src - "" count - the number of pgds to copy. dst and src can be on the same page, but the range must not overlap and must not cross a page boundary. Note that I ommitted using this call to copy pgd entries into the software suspend page root, since this is not technically a live paging structure, rather it is used on resume from suspend. CC'ing Pavel in case he has any feedback on this. Thanks to Chris Wright for noticing that this could be more optimal in PAE compiles by eliminating the memset.
