[PATCH] mm/MADV_COLLAPSE: don't expand collapse when vm_end is past requested end

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

 



MADV_COLLAPSE acts on one hugepage-aligned/sized region at a time, until
it has collapsed all eligible memory contained within the bounds
supplied by the user.

At the top of each hugepage iteration we (re)lock mmap_lock and
(re)validate the VMA for eligibility and update variables that might
have changed while mmap_lock was dropped.  One thing that might occur,
is that the VMA could be resized, and as such, we refetch vma->vm_end
to make sure we don't collapse past the end of the VMA.

However, it's possible that during this refetch that we expand the
region acted on by MADV_COLLAPSE if vma->vm_end is greater than the end
of the user-supplied range.

Don't expand the acted-on region when refetching vma->vm_end.
