Hi, Laurent

2018-02-16 23:25 GMT+08:00 Laurent Dufour <ldufour@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
> When the speculative page fault handler is returning VM_RETRY, there is a
> chance that VMA fetched without grabbing the mmap_sem can be reused by the
> legacy page fault handler. By reusing it, we avoid calling find_vma()
> again. To achieve, that we must ensure that the VMA structure will not be

> and by assuming that the caller will call the new service
> can_reuse_spf_vma() once it has grabbed the mmap_sem.

> In the case the VMA is freed, can_reuse_spf_vma() will have returned false

when I applied this patch to arm64, I got a crash:
