The patch titled Subject: kernel/fork: convert forking to using the vmi iterator has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is kernel-fork-convert-forking-to-using-the-vmi-iterator.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/kernel-fork-convert-forking-to-using-the-vmi-iterator.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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 via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel/fork: convert forking to using the vmi iterator Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2023 11:26:10 -0500 Avoid using the maple tree interface directly.
