From f0970c13b6a5b01189aeb196ebb573cf87d95839 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com" Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 17:00:20 -0700 Subject: x86: PAT phys_mem_access_prot_allowed for dev/mem mmap Introduce phys_mem_access_prot_allowed(), which checks whether the mapping is possible, without any conflicts and returns success or failure based on that. phys_mem_access_prot() by itself does not allow failure case. This ability to return error is needed for PAT where we may have aliasing conflicts. x86 setup __HAVE_PHYS_MEM_ACCESS_PROT and move x86 specific code out of /dev/mem into arch specific area.
