Subject: Re: [patch 2/4] mmu_notifier: Callbacks to invalidate address
ranges
Christoph,
The following code in do_wp_page is a problem.
We are getting this callout when we transition the pte from a read-only
to read-write. Jack and I can not see a reason we would need that
callout. It is causing problems for xpmem in that a write fault goes
to get_user_pages which gets back to do_wp_page that does the callout.
XPMEM only allows either faulting or invalidating to occur for an mm.
As you can see, the case above needs it to be in both states.
Thanks,
Robin
