Any updates on this ?
There is still no usecase to demonstrate a problem, so no real
justification to merge the patch. Coming up with such a usecase
is up to the submitter of the patch.
Maybe you didn't read my last email:
If 2 different user-mode processes executing on 2 CPUs under 2 different
users want to access the same shared memory through the
shmctl(SHM_LOCK) / shmget(SHM_HUGETLB) / usr_shm_lock
primitives, they could compete/spin even though their user_structs
are different.
Can you please correct me if I am missing some crucial point of understanding ?
