The quilt patch titled Subject: x86: mm: accelerate pagefault when badaccess has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-mm-accelerate-pagefault-when-badaccess.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: x86: mm: accelerate pagefault when badaccess Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2024 16:38:05 +0800 The access_error() of vma is already checked under per-VMA lock, if it is a bad access, directly handle error, no need to retry with mmap_lock again. In order to release the correct lock, pass the mm_struct into bad_area_access_error(). If mm is NULL, release vma lock, or release mmap_lock. Since the page faut is handled under per-VMA lock, count it as a vma lock event with VMA_LOCK_SUCCESS.
