Why yes, it should. I didn't even notice that that more precise function existed, thanks for catching that. I've changed it to this for the next version of the patchset: static inline int page_ref_sub_return(struct page *page, int nr) { int ret = atomic_sub_return(nr, &page->_refcount); if (page_ref_tracepoint_active(__tracepoint_page_ref_mod)) __page_ref_mod_and_return(page, -nr, ret); return ret; } thanks,

An upcoming patch requires subtracting a large chunk of refcounts from a page, and checking what the resulting refcount is. This is a little different than the usual "check for zero refcount" that many of the page ref functions already do. However, it is similar to a few other routines that (like this one) are generally useful for things such as 1-based refcounting. Add page_ref_sub_return(), that subtracts a chunk of refcounts atomically, and returns an atomic snapshot of the result.
