From a4602b62d9fdea41412ba765bbf32ecfc2b6a94c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Khalid Aziz Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2018 10:15:51 -0700 Subject: mm: Allow arch code to override copy_highpage() Some architectures can support metadata for memory pages and when a page is copied, its metadata must also be copied. Sparc processors from M7 onwards support metadata for memory pages. This metadata provides tag based protection for access to memory pages. To maintain this protection, the tag data must be copied to the new page when a page is migrated across NUMA nodes. This patch allows arch specific code to override default copy_highpage() and copy metadata along with page data upon migration.
