From 41bb3476b361ef38576cf9d539b19bae2ac93167 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cyrill Gorcunov Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2013 16:00:51 -0700 Subject: mm: save soft-dirty bits on file pages Andy reported that if file page get reclaimed we lose the soft-dirty bit if it was there, so save _PAGE_BIT_SOFT_DIRTY bit when page address get encoded into pte entry. Thus when #pf happens on such non-present pte we can restore it back.
