From: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@xxxxxxxxxx> This code was lost in translation at one point. This properly call mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release() once last user is gone. This fix the zombie mm_struct as without this patch we do not drop the refcount we have on it. Changed since v1: - close race window between a last mirror unregistering and a new mirror registering, which could have lead to use after free() kind of bug Signed-off-by: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Evgeny Baskakov <ebaskakov@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ralph Campbell <rcampbell@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mark Hairgrove <mhairgrove@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx> --- mm/hmm.c | 35 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 33 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/mm/hmm.c b/mm/hmm.c index 6088fa6ed137..f75aa8df6e97 100644 --- a/mm/hmm.c +++ b/mm/hmm.c @@ -222,13 +222,24 @@ int hmm_mirror_register(struct hmm_mirror *mirror, struct mm_struct *mm) if (!mm || !mirror || !mirror->ops) return -EINVAL; +again: mirror->hmm = hmm_register(mm); if (!mirror->hmm) return -ENOMEM; down_write(&mirror->hmm->mirrors_sem); - list_add(&mirror->list, &mirror->hmm->mirrors); - up_write(&mirror->hmm->mirrors_sem); + if (mirror->hmm->mm == NULL) { + /* + * A racing hmm_mirror_unregister() is about to destroy the hmm + * struct.
