To do dirty loging with huge pages, we protect huge pmds in the gmap. When they are written to, we unprotect them and mark them dirty. We introduce the function gmap_test_and_clear_dirty_pmd which handles dirty sync for huge pages. Signed-off-by: Janosch Frank <frankja@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
