linux.git/arch/um/include/asm/pgtable-4level.h, branch for-next Linux kernel source tree um: Rename _PAGE_NEWPAGE to _PAGE_NEEDSYNC 2024-10-23T07:52:49+00:00 Tiwei Bie tiwei.btw@antgroup.com 2024-10-11T10:23:54+00:00 9b0881858c74ae6a1a66de7350d123cf3f83169f The _PAGE_NEWPAGE bit does not really indicate that this is a new page, but rather whether this entry needs to be synced or not. Renaming it to _PAGE_NEEDSYNC will make it more clear how everything ties together.

One example for this is ASAN instrumentation of userspace applications which requires addresses that would otherwise not be available.
