Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/3] uprobes: introduce MMF_RECALC_UPROBES

* Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com> [2012-08-19 18:40:40]:

> Add the new MMF_RECALC_UPROBES flag, it means that MMF_HAS_UPROBES
> can be false positive after remove_breakpoint() or uprobe_munmap().
> It is also set by uprobe_dup_mmap(), this is not optimal but simple.
> We could add the new hook, uprobe_dup_vma(), to set MMF_HAS_UPROBES
> only if the new mm actually has uprobes, but I don't think this
> makes sense.
> 
> The next patch will use this flag to clear MMF_HAS_UPROBES.
