[PATCH] mm/gup: Remove some BUG_ONs from get_gate_page()

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

 



If we end up without a PGD or PUD entry backing the gate area, don't
BUG -- just fail gracefully.

It's not entirely implausible that this could happen some day on
x86.  It doesn't right now even with an execute-only emulated
vsyscall page because the fixmap shares the PUD, but the core mm
code shouldn't rely on that particular detail to avoid OOPSing.
