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

242 * It seems like we're in the clear for the moment. Direct-IO is

244 * they are limited to 64-at-a-time which is not so many.

248 * the pagetables and pages from being freed on x86.
250 * So long as we atomically load page table pointers versus teardown
251 * (which we do on x86, with the above PAE exception), we can follow the
252 * address down to the the page and take a ref on it.
