[PATCH 5.15] binder: remove inaccurate mmap_assert_locked()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Acquiring the mmap_lock during exit_mmap() was only added recently in
v5.17 by commit 64591e8605d6 ("mm: protect free_pgtables with mmap_lock
write lock in exit_mmap"). Soon after, asserts for holding this lock
were added to the binder_alloc_set_vma() callback by the following two
fix commits in mainline: commit b0cab80ecd54 ("android: binder: fix
lockdep check on clearing vma") and commit a43cfc87caaf ("android:
binder: stop saving a pointer to the VMA").

These two fix commits were picked for stable trees including v5.15 were
unfortunately the mmap_lock is not held during exit_mmap() yet and this
unmet dependency leads to the following BUG report:

This patch removes the inaccurate assert specifically from v5.15 since
it's the only release with such issue. Note the mmap_lock is technically
not needed here as the mm->mm_users has dropped to zero at this point.
