But the validate_range() that we do from userspace has a !len check in it, which keeps us from passing a len=0 in from userspace. Was that "wake all" for some internal use, or is the check too strict? I was trying to use the wake ioctl after an madvise() (as opposed to filling things in using a userfd copy). -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
