From a667d7456f189e3422725dddcd067537feac49c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Souptick Joarder Date: Mon, 13 May 2019 17:21:56 -0700 Subject: mm: introduce new vm_map_pages() and vm_map_pages_zero() API Patch series "mm: Use vm_map_pages() and vm_map_pages_zero() API", v5. This patch (of 5): Previouly drivers have their own way of mapping range of kernel pages/memory into user vma and this was done by invoking vm_insert_page() within a loop. As this pattern is common across different drivers, it can be generalized by creating new functions and using them across the drivers. vm_map_pages() is the API which can be used to map kernel memory/pages in drivers which have considered vm_pgoff vm_map_pages_zero() is the API which can be used to map a range of kernel memory/pages in drivers which have not considered vm_pgoff. vm_pgoff is passed as default 0 for those drivers. We _could_ then at a later "fix" these drivers which are using vm_map_pages_zero() to behave according to the normal vm_pgoff offsetting simply by removing the _zero suffix on the function name and if that causes regressions, it gives us an easy way to revert. Tested on Rockchip hardware and display is working, including talking to Lima via prime.
