I probably took an overly restrictive approach of only looking at the issue at hand, where exit_mmap() had already torn down the userspace PTs. But I guess there are other ways for this scenario to happen, none of which deserve -EFAULT indeed. > FWIW, the approach x86 takes is to install a 4KiB (smallest granuale) translation, > which is safe since there _was_ a valid translation when mmu_lock was acquired and > mmu_invalidate_retry() was checked.

I'd rather avoid extra work. At this stage, we might as well return -EAGAIN and replay the fault. We already do that in a number of racy cases, so it fits in the infrastructure. > KVM ARM also has a bug that might be related: the mmu_seq snapshot needs to be > taken _before_ mmap_read_unlock(), otherwise vma_shift may be stale by the time > it's consumed. I believe David is going to submit a patch (I found and "reported" > the bug when doing an internal review of "common MMU" stuff). Huh, that's interesting. David, please post this at your earliest convenience. I'd rather squash these all in one go. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.
