Subject: [merged mm-stable] fs-afs-restore-mmap_prepare-implementation.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 17:43:15 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260331004316.5AC4AC4CEF7@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: fs: afs: restore mmap_prepare implementation
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
fs-afs-restore-mmap_prepare-implementation.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: fs: afs: restore mmap_prepare implementation
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 22:39:36 +0000
Commit 9d5403b1036c ("fs: convert most other generic_file_*mmap() users to
.mmap_prepare()") updated AFS to use the mmap_prepare callback in favour
of the deprecated mmap callback.
However, it did not account for the fact that mmap_prepare is called
pre-merge, and may then be merged, nor that mmap_prepare can fail to map
due to an out of memory error.
This change was therefore since reverted.
Both of those are cases in which we should not be incrementing a reference
count.
With the newly added vm_ops->mapped callback available, we can simply
defer this operation to that callback which is only invoked once the
mapping is successfully in place (but not yet visible to userspace as the
mmap and VMA write locks are held).
This allows us to once again reimplement the .mmap_prepare implementation
for this file system.
Therefore add afs_mapped() to implement this callback for AFS, and remove
the code doing so in afs_mmap_prepare().
Also update afs_vm_open(), afs_vm_close() and afs_vm_map_pages() to be
consistent in how the vnode is accessed.
