[PATCH v4 5/5] hugetlb: Do early cow when page pinned on src mm
From: Peter Xu
Date: Mon Feb 08 2021 - 22:09:24 EST
This is the last missing piece of the COW-during-fork effort when there're
pinned pages found. One can reference 70e806e4e645 ("mm: Do early cow for
pinned pages during fork() for ptes", 2020-09-27) for more information, since
we do similar things here rather than pte this time, but just for hugetlb.
Note that after Jason's recent work on 57efa1fe5957 ("mm/gup: prevent gup_fast
from racing with COW during fork", 2020-12-15) which is safer and easier to
understand, we're safe now within the whole copy_page_range() against gup-fast,
we don't need the wr-protect trick that proposed in 70e806e4e645 anymore.
