Subject: [PATCH v2] kexec: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()
Date: Fri,  8 Jul 2022 01:15:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220707231550.1484-1-fmdefrancesco@gmail.com> (raw)

The use of kmap() and kmap_atomic() are being deprecated in favor of
kmap_local_page().

With kmap_local_page(), the mappings are per thread, CPU local and not
globally visible. Furthermore, the mappings can be acquired from any
context (including interrupts).

Therefore, use kmap_local_page() in kexec_core.c because these mappings are
per thread, CPU local, and not globally visible.

Tested on a QEMU + KVM 32-bits VM booting a kernel with HIGHMEM64GB
enabled.

v1->v2: A sentence of the commit message contained an error due to a
mistake in copy-pasting from a previous patch. Replace "aio.c" with
"kexec_core.c".
