For example if we start reading with the following VMAs: +------+------+-----------+ | VMA1 | VMA2 | VMA3 | +------+------+-----------+ | | | | 4k 8k 16k 400k Then after reading VMA2 we drop the lock due to contention. So: last_vma_end = 16k Then if VMA2 is freed while the lock is dropped, so we have: +------+ +-----------+ | VMA1 | | VMA3 | +------+ +-----------+ | | | | 4k 8k 16k 400k find_vma(mm, 16k-1) will then return VMA3 and the condition vm_start < last_vma_end will be false. > + continue; > + > + /* Current vma is not available, just break */ > + break; Which means we break out here and report an incomplete output (the numbers will be much smaller than reality). Would it be better to have a loop like: for (vma = priv->mm->mmap; vma;) { smap_gather_stats(vma, &mss); last_vma_end = vma->vm_end; if (contended) { /* drop/acquire lock */ vma = find_vma(mm, last_vma_end - 1); if (!vma) break; if (vma->vm_start >= last_vma_end) continue; } vma = vma->vm_next; } that way if the VMA is removed while the lock is dropped the loop can just continue from the next VMA. Or perhaps I missed something obvious? I haven't actually tested anything above.
