Patch series "set_memory_* functions header refactor", v3. The set_memory_* APIs came out of a desire to have a better way to change memory attributes. Many of these attributes were linked to cache functionality so the prototypes were put in cacheflush.h. These days, the APIs have grown and have a much wider use than just cache APIs. To support this growth, split off set_memory_* and friends into a separate header file to avoid growing cacheflush.h for APIs that have nothing to do with caches.

/*
|
|
* The set_memory_* API can be used to change various attributes of a virtual
|
|
* address range. The attributes include:
|
|
* Cachability : UnCached, WriteCombining, WriteThrough, WriteBack
|
|
* Executability : eXeutable, NoteXecutable
|
|
* Read/Write : ReadOnly, ReadWrite
|
|
* Presence : NotPresent
|
|
*
|
|
* Within a category, the attributes are mutually exclusive.
|
|
*
|
|
* The implementation of this API will take care of various aspects that
|
|
* are associated with changing such attributes, such as:
|
|
* - Flushing TLBs
|
|
* - Flushing CPU caches
|
|
* - Making sure aliases of the memory behind the mapping don't violate
|
|
* coherency rules as defined by the CPU in the system.
|
|
*
|
|
* What this API does not do:
|
|
* - Provide exclusion between various callers - including callers that
|
|
* operation on other mappings of the same physical page
|
|
* - Restore default attributes when a page is freed
|
|
* - Guarantee that mappings other than the requested one are
|
|
* in any state, other than that these do not violate rules for
|
|
* the CPU you have. Do not depend on any effects on other mappings,
|
|
* CPUs other than the one you have may have more relaxed rules.
|
|
* The caller is required to take care of these.

/*
|
|
* For legacy compatibility with the old APIs, a few functions
|
|
* are provided that work on a "struct page".
|
|
* These functions operate ONLY on the 1:1 kernel mapping of the
|
|
* memory that the struct page represents, and internally just
|
|
* call the set_memory_* function. See the description of the
|
|
* set_memory_* function for more details on conventions.
|
|
*
|
|
* These APIs should be considered *deprecated* and are likely going to
|
|
* be removed in the future.
|
|
* The reason for this is the implicit operation on the 1:1 mapping only,
|
|
* making this not a generally useful API.
|
|
*
|
|
* Specifically, many users of the old APIs had a virtual address,
|
|
* called virt_to_page() or vmalloc_to_page() on that address to
|
|
* get a struct page* that the old API required.
|
|
* To convert these cases, use set_memory_*() on the original
|
|
* virtual address, do not use these functions.
