Subject: mm: Add fault_in_subpage_writeable() to probe at sub-page granularity
X-Git-Tag: v6.1-rc5~1153^2~8^4~2
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=da32b5817253697671af961715517bfbb308a592;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-starfive.git

mm: Add fault_in_subpage_writeable() to probe at sub-page granularity

On hardware with features like arm64 MTE or SPARC ADI, an access fault
can be triggered at sub-page granularity. Depending on how the
fault_in_writeable() function is used, the caller can get into a
live-lock by continuously retrying the fault-in on an address different
from the one where the uaccess failed.

In the majority of cases progress is ensured by the following
conditions:

1. copy_to_user_nofault() guarantees at least one byte access if the
   user address is not faulting.

2. The fault_in_writeable() loop is resumed from the first address that
   could not be accessed by copy_to_user_nofault().

If the loop iteration is restarted from an earlier (initial) point, the
loop is repeated with the same conditions and it would live-lock.

Introduce an arch-specific probe_subpage_writeable() and call it from
the newly added fault_in_subpage_writeable() function. The arch code
with sub-page faults will have to implement the specific probing
functionality.

Note that no other fault_in_subpage_*() functions are added since they
have no callers currently susceptible to a live-lock.
