[PATCH v3 6/9] riscv: mm: Take memory hotplug read-lock during kernel page table dump

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

 



From: Björn Töpel <bjorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

During memory hot remove, the ptdump functionality can end up touching
stale data. Avoid any potential crashes (or worse), by holding the
memory hotplug read-lock while traversing the page table.

This change is analogous to arm64's commit bf2b59f60ee1 ("arm64/mm:
Hold memory hotplug lock while walking for kernel page table dump").
