Subject: Re: [HMM 12/15] mm/migrate: new memory migration helper for use with
 device memory v4

Hi Jerome,

I am working on a sporadic data corruption seen in highly contented use 
cases. So far, I've been able to re-create a sporadic hang that happens 
when multiple threads compete to migrate the same page to and from 
device memory. The reproducer uses only the dummy driver from hmm-next.

Please find attached. This is how it hangs on my 12-core Intel i7-5930K 
SMT system:

&&& 2 migrate threads, 2 read threads: STARTING
(EE:84) hmm_buffer_mirror_read error -1
&&& 2 migrate threads, 2 read threads: PASSED
&&& 2 migrate threads, 3 read threads: STARTING
&&& 2 migrate threads, 3 read threads: PASSED
&&& 2 migrate threads, 4 read threads: STARTING
&&& 2 migrate threads, 4 read threads: PASSED
&&& 3 migrate threads, 2 read threads: STARTING

The kernel log (also attached) shows multiple threads blocked in 
hmm_vma_fault() and migrate_vma():
