mm/mempolicy.c: remove unnecessary is_valid_nodemask()

2014-12-19T03:08:10+00:00

When nodes is true, nsc->mask2 has already been filtered by nsc->mask1,
which has already factored in node_states[N_MEMORY].

vm_area_operations: kill ->migrate()

2014-12-17T13:26:51+00:00

the only instance this method has ever grown was one in kernfs -
one that call ->migrate() of another vm_ops if it exists.

mm: mempolicy: skip inaccessible VMAs when setting MPOL_MF_LAZY

2014-10-10T02:26:02+00:00

PROT_NUMA VMAs are skipped to avoid problems distinguishing between
present, prot_none and special entries.  MPOL_MF_LAZY is not visible from
userspace since commit a720094ded8c ("mm: mempolicy: Hide MPOL_NOOP and
MPOL_MF_LAZY from userspace for now") but it should still skip VMAs the
same way task_numa_work does.

mempolicy: unexport get_vma_policy() and remove its "task" arg

2014-10-10T02:25:56+00:00

- get_vma_policy(task) is not safe if task != current, remove this
  argument.

- get_vma_policy() no longer has callers outside of mempolicy.c,
  make it static.

mempolicy: kill do_set_mempolicy()->down_write(&mm->mmap_sem)

2014-10-10T02:25:56+00:00

Remove down_write(&mm->mmap_sem) in do_set_mempolicy(). This logic
was never correct and it is no longer needed, see the previous patch.

mempolicy: introduce __get_vma_policy(), export get_task_policy()

2014-10-10T02:25:56+00:00

Extract the code which looks for vma's policy from get_vma_policy()
into the new helper, __get_vma_policy(). Export get_task_policy().

mempolicy: remove the "task" arg of vma_policy_mof() and simplify it

2014-10-10T02:25:56+00:00

1. vma_policy_mof(task) is simply not safe unless task == current,
   it can race with do_exit()->mpol_put(). Remove this arg and update
   its single caller.

2. vma can not be NULL, remove this check and simplify the code.

mempolicy: sanitize the usage of get_task_policy()

2014-10-10T02:25:56+00:00

Cleanup + preparation. Every user of get_task_policy() calls it
unconditionally, even if it is not going to use the result.

get_task_policy() is cheap but still this does not look clean, plus
the code looks simpler if get_task_policy() is called only when this
is really needed.

Note: I hope this is correct, but it is not clear why vma_policy_mof()
doesn't fall back to get_task_policy() if ->get_policy() returns NULL.

mempolicy: change get_task_policy() to return default_policy rather than NULL

2014-10-10T02:25:55+00:00

Every caller of get_task_policy() falls back to default_policy if it
returns NULL. Change get_task_policy() to do this.
