Subject: [12/16] export __get_user_pages_fast() function
Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2011 12:49:45 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111216205043.392878849@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111216205049.GA28030@kroah.com>
2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com>
commit 45888a0c6edc305495b6bd72a30e66bc40b324c6 upstream.
Backport for stable kernel v2.6.32.y to v2.6.36.y.
Needed for next patch:
oprofile, x86: Fix nmi-unsafe callgraph support
This function is used by KVM to pin process's page in the atomic context.
Define the 'weak' function to avoid other architecture not support it
