The patch titled Subject: userfaultfd: change mmap_changing to atomic has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was userfaultfd-change-mmap_changing-to-atomic.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Nadav Amit <namit@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: userfaultfd: change mmap_changing to atomic Patch series "userfaultfd: minor bug fixes". Three unrelated bug fixes. The first two addresses possible issues (not too theoretical ones), but I did not encounter them in practice. The third patch addresses a test bug that causes the test to fail on my system. It has been sent before as part of a bigger RFC. This patch (of 3): mmap_changing is currently a boolean variable, which is set and cleared without any lock that protects against concurrent modifications. mmap_changing is supposed to mark whether userfaultfd page-faults handling should be retried since mappings are undergoing a change. However, concurrent calls, for instance to madvise(MADV_DONTNEED), might cause mmap_changing to be false, although the remove event was still not read (hence acknowledged) by the user. Change mmap_changing to atomic_t and increase/decrease appropriately. Add a debug assertion to see whether mmap_changing is negative.
