Subjectptep_test_and_clear_young() i386 vs. x86_64
Hi All!

Is there any special reason why ptep_test_and_clear_young()
implementation for x86_64 does not call pte_update()?

Compare the following:

include/asm-x86_64/pgtable.h:

static inline int ptep_test_and_clear_young(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
unsigned long addr, pte_t *ptep)
{
if (!pte_young(*ptep))
return 0;
return test_and_clear_bit(_PAGE_BIT_ACCESSED, &ptep->pte);

}

include/asm-i386/pgtable.h:

#define ptep_test_and_clear_young(vma, addr, ptep) ({ \
int __ret = 0; \
if (pte_young(*(ptep))) \
__ret = test_and_clear_bit(_PAGE_BIT_ACCESSED, \
&(ptep)->pte_low); \
if (__ret) \
pte_update((vma)->vm_mm, addr, ptep);
\
__ret; \

})
