[PATCH V1 0/2] fixes for virtual address update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Fix bugs in the interfaces that allow the underlying memory object of an
iova range to be mapped in a new address space.  They allow userland to
indefinitely block vfio mediated device kernel threads, and do not
propagate the locked_vm count to a new mm.

Steve Sistare (2):
  vfio/type1: exclude mdevs from VFIO_UPDATE_VADDR
  vfio/type1: prevent locked_vm underflow
