Hi all,
This developed from a discussion with Jason, starting with some patches
touching get_vaddr_frame that I typed up.
The problem is that way back VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP mappings were pretty
static, and so just following the ptes to derive a pfn and then use that
somewhere else was ok.
But we're no longer in such a world, there's tons of little races and some
fundamental problems.
This series here is an attempt to at least scope the problem, it's all the
issues I've found with quite some code reading all over the tree:
- first part tries to move mm/frame-vector.c away, it's fundamentally an
unsafe thing
- two patches to close follow_pfn races by holding pt locks
- two pci patches where I spotted inconsinstencies between the 3 different
ways userspace can map pci bars
- and finally some patches to mark up the remaining issue
No testing beyond "it compiles", this is very much an rfc to figure out
whether this makes sense, whether it's a real thing, and how to fix this
up properly.
Cheers, Daniel
