Subject: [merged mm-hotfixes-stable] userfaultfd-wait-on-source-pmd-during-uffdio_move.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 17:43:30 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260721004330.950E71F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: userfaultfd: wait on source PMD during UFFDIO_MOVE
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
userfaultfd-wait-on-source-pmd-during-uffdio_move.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: userfaultfd: wait on source PMD during UFFDIO_MOVE
Date: Sun, 5 Jul 2026 06:12:31 -0700
move_pages_huge_pmd() snapshots src_pmdval under src_ptl, drops the lock,
and, for migration entries, waits with pmd_migration_entry_wait().
Passing &src_pmdval is wrong. pmd_migration_entry_wait() must lock and
re-read the real page-table PMD; on split-PMD-lock kernels, a stack
address also resolves to the wrong lock. softleaf_entry_wait_on_locked()
then waits without a folio reference, which is safe only while serialized
against migration-entry removal by the real PT lock.
Pass src_pmd, matching __handle_mm_fault() and hmm_vma_walk_pmd().
