While better than get_user_pages(), the usage of gupf(), especially the return values and the fact that it can potentially only partially pin the range, warranted some documentation.

* With get_user_pages_fast, we walk down the pagetables without taking
|
|
* any locks. For this we would like to load the pointers atoimcally,
|
|
* but that is not possible (without expensive cmpxchg8b) on PAE. What
|
|
* we do have is the guarantee that a pte will only either go from not
|
|
* present to present, or present to not present or both -- it will not
|
|
* switch to a completely different present page without a TLB flush in
|
|
* between; something that we are blocking by holding interrupts off.
|
|
*
|
|
* Setting ptes from not present to present goes:
|
|
* ptep->pte_high = h;
|
|
* smp_wmb();
|
|
* ptep->pte_low = l;
|
|
*
|
|
* And present to not present goes:
|
|
* ptep->pte_low = 0;
|
|
* smp_wmb();
|
|
* ptep->pte_high = 0;
|
|
*
|
|
* We must ensure here that the load of pte_low sees l iff pte_high
|
|
* sees h. We load pte_high *after* loading pte_low, which ensures we
|
|
* don't see an older value of pte_high. *Then* we recheck pte_low,
|
|
* which ensures that we haven't picked up a changed pte high. We might
|
|
* have got rubbish values from pte_low and pte_high, but we are
|
|
* guaranteed that pte_low will not have the present bit set *unless*
|
|
* it is 'l'. And get_user_pages_fast only operates on present ptes, so
|
|
* we're safe.
|
|
*
|
|
* gup_get_pte should not be used or copied outside gup.c without being
|
|
* very careful -- it does not atomically load the pte or anything that
|
|
* is likely to be useful for you.
