The patch titled
Subject: procfs: also fix proc_reg_get_unmapped_area() for !MMU case
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
procfs-also-fix-proc_reg_get_unmapped_area-for-mmu-case.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: "Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: procfs: also fix proc_reg_get_unmapped_area() for !MMU case
Commit fad1a86e ("procfs: call default get_unmapped_area on MMU-present
architectures"), as its title says, took care of only the MMU case,
leaving the !MMU side still in the regressed state (returning -EIO in all
cases where pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area is NULL).
>From the fad1a86e changelog:
: Commit c4fe24485729 ("sparc: fix PCI device proc file mmap(2)") added
: proc_reg_get_unmapped_area in proc_reg_file_ops and
: proc_reg_file_ops_no_compat, by which now mmap always returns EIO if
: get_unmapped_area method is not defined for the target procfs file, which
: causes regression of mmap on /proc/vmcore.
:
: To address this issue, like get_unmapped_area(), call default
: current->mm->get_unmapped_area on MMU-present architectures if
: pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area, i.e. the one in actual file operation
: in the procfs file, is not defined.
