From 5a178119b0fbe37f7dfb602b37df9cc4b1dc9d71 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2012 16:45:02 -0700 Subject: mm: add support for direct_IO to highmem pages The patch "mm: add support for a filesystem to activate swap files and use direct_IO for writing swap pages" added support for using direct_IO to write swap pages but it is insufficient for highmem pages. To support highmem pages, this patch kmaps() the page before calling the direct_IO() handler. As direct_IO deals with virtual addresses an additional helper is necessary for get_kernel_pages() to lookup the struct page for a kmap virtual address.
