Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Revert "android: binder: stop saving a pointer to the VMA"
Date: Tue, 2 May 2023 20:12:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230502201220.1756319-2-cmllamas@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230502201220.1756319-1-cmllamas@google.com>
This reverts commit a43cfc87caaf46710c8027a8c23b8a55f1078f19.
This patch fixed an issue reported by syzkaller in [1]. However, this
turned out to be only a band-aid in binder. The root cause, as bisected
by syzkaller, was fixed by commit 5789151e48ac ("mm/mmap: undo ->mmap()
when mas_preallocate() fails"). We no longer need the patch for binder.
Reverting such patch allows us to have a lockless access to alloc->vma
in specific cases where the mmap_lock is not required. This approach
avoids the contention that caused a performance regression.
