[PATCH 0/2][RFC] New version of shared page tables

From: Dave McCracken
Date: Wed May 03 2006 - 11:43:09 EST



I've done some cleanup and some bugfixing. Hugh, please review
this version instead of the old one. I like my locking mechanism
for unsharing on this one a lot better. It works on an address
range instead of depending on a vma, which more closely reflects
the way it's used.

The first patch just standardizes the pxd_page/pxd_page_kernel macros
for all architectures.

The second patch is the heart of shared page tables.

This version of the patches is against 2.6.17-rc3.
