[PATCHv2 0/6] Make vma_is_anonymous() reliable

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

 



We rely on ->vm_ops == NULL to detect anonymous VMA but this check is not
always reliable:

 - MPX sets ->vm_ops on anonymous VMA;

  - many drivers don't set ->vm_ops. See for instance hpet_mmap().

  This patchset makes vma_is_anonymous() more reliable and makes few
  cleanups around the code.

v2:
 - drop broken patch;
 - more cleanup for mpx code (Oleg);
 - vma_is_anonymous() in create_huge_pmd() and wp_huge_pmd();

Kirill A. Shutemov (5):
  mm: mark most vm_operations_struct const
  x86, mpx: do not set ->vm_ops on mpx VMAs
  mm: make sure all file VMAs have ->vm_ops set
  mm: use vma_is_anonymous() in create_huge_pmd() and wp_huge_pmd()
  mm, madvise: use vma_is_anonymous() to check for anon VMA

Oleg Nesterov (1):
  mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to do_mmap_pgoff()
