The patch titled
Subject: userfaultfd: selftest: exercise -EEXIST only in background transfer
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
userfaultfd-selftest-exercise-eexist-only-in-background-transfer.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: userfaultfd: selftest: exercise -EEXIST only in background transfer
I was stress testing some backports and with high load, after some time,
the latest version of the selftest showed some false positive in
connection with the uffdio_copy_retry. This seems to fix it while still
exercising -EEXIST in the background transfer once in a while.
The fork child will quit after the last UFFDIO_COPY is run, so a repeated
UFFDIO_COPY may not return -EEXIST. This change restricts the -EEXIST
stress to the background transfer where the memory can't go away from
under it.
Also updated uffdio_zeropage, so the interface is consistent.
