Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] mm, hwpoison: Try to recover from copy-on write faults

Does it send SIGBUS to only child process or both parent and child process?

If the error page is not poisoned, should the return value of wp_page_copy
be VM_FAULT_HWPOISON or VM_FAULT_SIGBUS? When is_hwpoison_entry(entry) or
PageHWPoison(page) is true, do_swap_page return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON to caller.
And when is_swapin_error_entry is true, do_swap_page return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS.
Thanks.
