It is hard to tell what is a confused/wrong and what is deliberate in
this code...
Currently the hmm_range_fault invokes walk_page_range on a VMA by VMA
basis, and the above prevents some cases of walk->vma becoming
NULL, but not all - for instance it doesn't check for start < vma->vm_start.
However, checking if it can actually tolerate the walk->vma == NULL it
looks like no:
walk_page_range
find_vma == NULL || start < vm_start -> walk->vma == NULL
__walk_page_range
walk_pgd_range
pte_hole / hmm_vma_walk_hole
hmm_vma_walk_hole_
hmm_vma_do_fault
handle_mm_fault(walk->vma, addr, flags)
vma->vm_mm <-- OOPS
Which kind of suggests the find_vma above was about preventing
walk->vma == NULL? Does something else tricky prevent this?
This patch also changes behavior so that missing VMAs don't always
trigger EFAULT (which is a good thing, but needs to be in the commit
message)
I strongly believe this is the correct direction to go in, and the fact
that this function returns EFAULT if there is no VMA/incompatible VMA
is actually a semantic bug we need to fix before it is a usable API.
Ie consider the user does something like
ptr = mmap(0, PAGE_SIZE ..)
mr = ib_reg_mr(ptr - PAGE_SIZE, ptr + 3*PAGE_SIZE, IBV_ACCESS_ON_DEMAND)
Then in the kernel I want to do hmm_range_fault(HMM_FAULT_SNAPSHOT)
across the MR VA and get a pfns array that says PAGE 0 is FAULT, PAGE
1 is R/W, PAGE 2 is FAULT.
Instead the entire call fails because there is no VMA at the starting
offset, or the VMA had the wrong flags, or something.
What it should do is populate the result with FAULT for the gap part
of the VA range and continue to the next VMA.
The same comment applies to the implementation of the walker test
function, it should return 1 to skip the VMA and fill PFNS with FAULT
when there is a mismatch VMA, not fail entirely.
Perhaps there was some thought that the fault version should fail to
tell the pagefault handler there is nothing to DMA, but even that is
not entirely desirable, I'd like to have 'fault around' semantics, if
we are going to all the work of doing a few PTEs, lets do a chunk. I
only care if the critical page(s) triggering the fault couldn't be
faulted in, the others can remain as pfn FAULT.
To proceed with this patch we need to confirm/deny the above trace. I
think it probably can be fixed easily (as another patch) by checking
for walk->vma == NULL in the right places.
I really would like to see a test for this function too :( It has lots
and lots of edge cases that need the be comprehensively explored
before we can call this working..
