Subject: [PATCH 1/1] __mlock_vma_pages_range: stack_guard_page() case returns the wrong value
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2011 21:08:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110412190804.GB13752@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110412190731.GA13752@redhat.com>

__mlock_vma_pages_range() simply changes addr/nr_pages when
stack_guard_page(vma, start). But this means that __get_user_pages()
returns a number which doesn't match the [start, end) interval and
the caller can be confused.

If we skip the first page, we should return 1 if gup fails, or add
1 to the number it returns.
