Subject: [PATCH] userfaultfd_zeropage: return -ENOSPC in case mm has gone
Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2017 09:26:59 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1501136819-21857-1-git-send-email-rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In the non-cooperative userfaultfd case, the process exit may race with
outstanding mcopy_atomic called by the uffd monitor. Returning -ENOSPC
instead of -EINVAL when mm is already gone will allow uffd monitor to
distinguish this case from other error conditions.

Unfortunately, I've overlooked userfaultfd_zeropage when I updated
userfaultd_copy :(
