[PATCH v4 0/2] mm/memory-failure: Poison read receives SIGKILL instead of SIGBUS issue

From: Jane Chu
Date: Tue Aug 06 2019 - 13:25:59 EST


Change in v4:
- remove trailing white space

Changes in v3:
- move **tk cleanup to its own patch

Changes in v2:
- move 'tk' allocations internal to add_to_kill(), suggested by Dan;
- ran checkpatch.pl check, pointed out by Matthew;
- Noaya pointed out that v1 would have missed the SIGKILL
if "tk->addr == -EFAULT", since the code returns early.
Incorporated Noaya's suggestion, also, skip VMAs where
"tk->size_shift == 0" for zone device page, and deliver SIGBUS
when "tk->size_shift != 0" so the payload is helpful;
- added Suggested-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Jane Chu (2):
mm/memory-failure.c clean up around tk pre-allocation
mm/memory-failure: Poison read receives SIGKILL instead of SIGBUS if
mmaped more than once
