Subject: [PATCH 2/5] uprobes: suppress uprobe_munmap() from mmput()
Date: Sun, 8 Jul 2012 22:30:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120708203003.GA18226@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120708202917.GA18188@redhat.com>
uprobe_munmap() does get_user_pages() and it is also called from
the final mmput()->exit_mmap() path. This slows down exit/mmput()
for no reason, and I think it is simply dangerous/wrong to try to
fault-in a page into the dying mm. If nothing else, this happens
after the last sync_mm_rss(), afaics handle_mm_fault() can change
the task->rss_stat and make the subsequent check_mm() unhappy.
Change uprobe_munmap() to check mm->mm_users != 0.
