From bab70a4af737f623de5b034976a311055308ab86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eugene Surovegin Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2006 10:13:12 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] lock PTE before updating it in 440/BookE page fault handler Fix 44x and BookE page fault handler to correctly lock PTE before trying to pte_update() it, otherwise this PTE might be swapped out after pte_present() check but before pte_uptdate() call, resulting in corrupted PTE. This can happen with enabled preemption and low memory condition.
