Hi John,

I have been giving your git tree a whirl, and in order to simulate a
limited memory environment, I was using memory cgroups.

The program I was using to test is attached here. It is your test
code, with some changes (changing the syscall interface, reducing
the memory pressure to be generated).

I trapped it in a memory cgroup with 1MB memory.limit_in_bytes and hit this,

[  406.207612] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[  406.207621] kernel BUG at mm/vrange.c:523!
[  406.207626] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
[  406.207631] Modules linked in:
[  406.207637] CPU: 0 PID: 1579 Comm: volatile-test Not tainted
Thanks for the testing!
Does below patch fix your problem?
Yes it does! Thank you very much for the patch.
Thaks for the confirming.
While I tested it, I found several problems so I just sent fixes as reply
of each [7/8] and [8/8].
Could you test it?

Great! These patches (seem to) fix another issue I noticed yesterday with signal handling. I have pushed out my code for testing this stuff at https://github.com/volatile-ranges-test/vranges-test . The code and the scripts are still unpolished (as in you don't get a pass or fail) but they seem to work just fine.


FYI: John, Dhaval

I am working to clean purging mess up so maybe it would need not a few
change for purging part.

Great, I will also take a look at the code.
