Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] fs/proc/task_mmu: execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma locks
Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2025 08:59:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250806155905.824388-4-surenb@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250806155905.824388-1-surenb@google.com>
Utilize per-vma locks to stabilize vma after lookup without taking
mmap_lock during PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl execution. If vma lock is
contended, we fall back to mmap_lock but take it only momentarily
to lock the vma and release the mmap_lock. In a very unlikely case
of vm_refcnt overflow, this fall back path will fail and ioctl is
done under mmap_lock protection.
This change is designed to reduce mmap_lock contention and prevent
PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl calls from blocking address space updates.
