The patch titled Subject: vfio, mm: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) and put_user_page() conversion has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is vfio-mm-pin_user_pages-foll_pin-and-put_user_page-conversion.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/vfio-mm-pin_user_pages-foll_pin-and-put_user_page-conversion.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/vfio-mm-pin_user_pages-foll_pin-and-put_user_page-conversion.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: vfio, mm: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) and put_user_page() conversion 1. Change vfio from get_user_pages_remote(), to pin_user_pages_remote(). 2. Because all FOLL_PIN-acquired pages must be released via put_user_page(), also convert the put_page() call over to put_user_pages_dirty_lock(). Note that this effectively changes the code's behavior in vfio_iommu_type1.c: put_pfn(): it now ultimately calls set_page_dirty_lock(), instead of set_page_dirty(). This is probably more accurate. As Christoph Hellwig put it, "set_page_dirty() is only safe if we are dealing with a file backed page where we have reference on the inode it hangs off."
