Its filename is vmalloc-make-find_vm_area-check-in-range.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/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: HATAYAMA Daisuke <d.hatayama@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: vmalloc: make find_vm_area check in range Currently, __find_vmap_area searches for the kernel VM area starting at a given address. This patch changes this behavior so that it searches for the kernel VM area to which the address belongs. This change is needed by remap_vmalloc_range_partial to be introduced in later patch that receives any position of kernel VM area as target address. This patch changes the condition (addr > va->va_start) to the equivalent (addr >= va->va_end) by taking advantage of the fact that each kernel VM area is non-overlapping.
