[PATCH v3 2/8] mm/memory-failure.c: catch unexpected -EFAULT from vma_address()

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

 



It's unexpected to walk the page table when vma_address() return -EFAULT.
But dev_pagemap_mapping_shift() is called only when vma associated to the
error page is found already in collect_procs_{file,anon}, so vma_address()
should not return -EFAULT except with some bug, as Naoya pointed out. We
can use VM_BUG_ON_VMA() to catch this bug here.
