Hi Ankur,

We are observing below BUG_ON() with latest kernel

This is observed after patch "vfio-pci: Fault mmaps to enable vma tracking" where actual mapping delayed on page fault.
When address of same page accessed by multiple threads at/around same time by threads running on different cores causes page fault for same page on multiple cores at same time. One of the fault hander creates mapping while second hander find that page-table mapping already exists and leads to above kernel BUG_ON().

While article  https://lwn.net/Articles/828536/ suggest that you have already faced and fixed this issue
       "- vfio-pci: protect remap_pfn_range() from simultaneous calls (Ankur  Arora) [Orabug: 31663628] {CVE-2020-12888} {CVE-2020-12888}"

But I do not see any patch submitted or under review in upstream, hopefully I did not missed some discussion. Please let us know in case you already submitted or planning to submit fix or someone else fixed same.

Thanks
