[PATCH v2 4/5] userfaultfd: mcopy_atomic: return -ENOENT when no compatible VMA found

From: Mike Rapoport
Date: Fri Jan 27 2017 - 17:50:13 EST


The memory mapping of a process may change between #PF event and the call
to mcopy_atomic that comes to resolve the page fault. In such case, there
will be no VMA covering the range passed to mcopy_atomic or the VMA will
not have userfaultfd context.
To allow uffd monitor to distinguish those case from other errors, let's
return -ENOENT instead of -EINVAL.

Note, that despite availability of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP there still might be
race between the processing of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP and outstanding
mcopy_atomic in case of non-cooperative uffd usage.
