[PATCH 0/1] mm/hugetlb.c: teach follow_hugetlb_page() to handle FOLL_NOWAIT

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

 



Hello,

this fixes a regression that resurfaced in hugetlbfs code after we
fixed it for the core VM a few months ago. This is only reproducible
doing postcopy live migration of KVM (the only user of FOLL_NOWAIT) if
backed by hugetlbfs memory. It's unrelated to userfaultfd, but
userfaultfd reproduces it easily because it's an heavy user of
VM_FAULT_RETRY retvals.

Thanks,
Andrea
