Subject: [PATCH] arch/sh: use slow path for get_user_pages_fast() on SMP
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2018 15:52:37 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180615155237.8166-1-thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com> (raw)
The fast path of get_user_pages_fast() disables IRQs and then does:
- gup_pud_range()
- gup_pmd_range()
- gup_pte_range()
- flush_dcache_page()
However, flush_dcache_page() makes a smp_call_function(), and using
smp_call_function() when IRQs are disabled is not allowed.
In order to work around this problem, this commit prevents the fast
path from get_user_pages_fast() from being used on SMP, and directly
uses the slow path, which doesn't disable interrupts.
Fixes the following warning when get_futex_key() is called:

Note: this is really a work around. Perhaps SuperH should use the
generic GUP implementation from mm/gup.c ? Any other solution ?
