Subject: [PATCH 5/5] uprobes: kill insert_vm_struct()->uprobe_mmap()
Date: Sun, 8 Jul 2012 22:30:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120708203011.GA18243@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120708202917.GA18188@redhat.com>

Kill insert_vm_struct()->uprobe_mmap(). It is not needed, nobody
except arch/ia64/kernel/perfmon.c uses insert_vm_struct(vma) with
vma->vm_file != NULL.

And it is wrong. Again, get_user_pages() can not succeed before
vma_link(vma) makes is visible to find_vma(). And even if this
worked, we must not insert the new bp before this mapping is
visible to vma_prio_tree_foreach() for uprobe_unregister().
