From 0d7317598214134d73da59990b846481a9527a00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lorenzo Stoakes Date: Mon, 24 Oct 2016 10:57:25 +0100 Subject: mm: unexport __get_user_pages() This patch unexports the low-level __get_user_pages() function. Recent refactoring of the get_user_pages* functions allow flags to be passed through get_user_pages() which eliminates the need for access to this function from its one user, kvm. We can see that the two calls to get_user_pages() which replace __get_user_pages() in kvm_main.c are equivalent by examining their call stacks: get_user_page_nowait(): get_user_pages(start, 1, flags, page, NULL) __get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, start, 1, page, NULL, NULL, false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH) __get_user_pages(current, current->mm, start, 1, flags | FOLL_TOUCH | FOLL_GET, page, NULL, NULL) check_user_page_hwpoison(): get_user_pages(addr, 1, flags, NULL, NULL) __get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, addr, 1, NULL, NULL, NULL, false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH) __get_user_pages(current, current->mm, addr, 1, flags | FOLL_TOUCH, NULL, NULL, NULL) Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Stoakes Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini Acked-by: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- mm/nommu.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'mm/nommu.c') diff --git a/mm/nommu.c b/mm/nommu.c index db5fd1795298..8b8faaf2a9e9 100644 --- a/mm/nommu.c +++ b/mm/nommu.c @@ -109,7 +109,7 @@ unsigned int kobjsize(const void *objp) return PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page); } -long __get_user_pages(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm, +static long __get_user_pages(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm, unsigned long start, unsigned long nr_pages, unsigned int foll_flags, struct page **pages, struct vm_area_struct **vmas, int *nonblocking) -- cgit v1.2.3-58-ga151
