Message-Id: <20090407151005.4E24B1D046D@basil.firstfloor.org> Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2009 17:10:05 +0200 (CEST) From: Andi Kleen <andi@...stfloor.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linux-mm@...ck.org, x86@...nel.org Subject: [PATCH] [8/16] POISON: Add various poison checks in mm/memory.c Bail out early when poisoned pages are found in page fault handling. Since they are poisoned they should not be mapped freshly into processes. This is generally handled in the same way as OOM, just a different error code is returned to the architecture code.
