Subject: [PATCH v4 5/5] tcp: Remove mmap_lock fallback path
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 13:05:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806200548.3124802-6-surenb@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260806200548.3124802-1-surenb@google.com>
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
Previously, the per-VMA locking could fail in the face of writers
which necessitates a fallback to mmap_lock. The new
lock_vma_under_rcu_wait() will wait for writers instead of failing.
Use the new helper. Wait for writers. Remove the fallback to mmap_lock.
The fallback removal does not affect NOMMU case because TCP_ZEROCOPY
is gated on CONFIG_MMU.
This really is a nice cleanup. It removes the need to pass the lock
state back and forth to find_tcp_vma().
