There is no easy way to fix\nwithout a bigger rework/cleanup.  I have a bunch of cleanups on top (some\nprevious sent, some the result of the discussion in v1) that I will send\nout separately once this landed and I get to it.\n\nI wish we could just use some special present PROT_NONE PTEs instead of\nthese (non-present, non-none) fake-swap entries; but that just results in\nthe same problem we keep having (lack of spare PTE bits), and staring at\nother similar fake-swap entries, that ship has sailed.\n\nWith this series, make_device_exclusive() doesn't actually belong into\nmm/rmap.c anymore, but I'll leave moving that for another day.\n\nI only tested this series with the hmm-tests selftests due to lack of HW,\nso I'd appreciate some testing, especially if the interaction between two\nGPUs wanting a device-exclusive entry works as expected.\n\n<program>\n#include <stdio.h>\n#include <fcntl.h>\n#include <stdint.h>\n#include <unistd.h>\n#include <stdlib.h>\n#include <string.h>\n#include <sys/mman.h>\n#include <sys/ioctl.h>\n#include <linux/types.h>\n#include <linux/ioctl.h>\n\n#define HMM_DMIRROR_EXCLUSIVE _IOWR('H', 0x05, struct hmm_dmirror_cmd)\n\nstruct hmm_dmirror_cmd {\n\t__u64 addr;\n\t__u64 ptr;\n\t__u64 npages;\n\t__u64 cpages;\n\t__u64 faults;\n};\n\nconst size_t size = 1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024ul;\nconst size_t chunk_size = 2 * 1024 * 1024ul;\n\nint m\n---truncated---"}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["mm/gup.c"],"versions":[{"version":"9cb28da54643ad464c47585cd5866c30b0218e67","lessThan":"2e877ff3492267def06dd50cb165dc9ab8838e7d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9cb28da54643ad464c47585cd5866c30b0218e67","lessThan":"48d28417c66cce2f3b0ba773fcb6695a56eff220","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9cb28da54643ad464c47585cd5866c30b0218e67","lessThan":"fd900832e8440046627b60697687ab5d04398008","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9cb28da54643ad464c47585cd5866c30b0218e67","lessThan":"8977752c8056a6a094a279004a49722da15bace3","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["mm/gup.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.10","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.10","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.23","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.13.11","lessThanOrEqual":"6.13.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.14.2","lessThanOrEqual":"6.14.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.15","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.23"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.13.11"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.14.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.15"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2e877ff3492267def06dd50cb165dc9ab8838e7d"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/48d28417c66cce2f3b0ba773fcb6695a56eff220"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fd900832e8440046627b60697687ab5d04398008"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8977752c8056a6a094a279004a49722da15bace3"}],"title":"mm/gup: reject FOLL_SPLIT_PMD with hugetlb VMAs","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
