[PATCH v4 0/2] mm,hwpoison: fix sending SIGBUS for Action Required MCE

From: Naoya Horiguchi
Date: Tue Apr 27 2021 - 02:30:11 EST


Hi,

I updated the series based on Boris's review. I folded 2/3 and 3/3
into one patch, updated description, added some refactored and rebased
onto v5.12. There's no essential change in how the problem is solved.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210412224320.1747638-1-nao.horiguchi@xxxxxxxxx/
v2 (only 3/3 is posted): https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210419023658.GA1962954@u2004/
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210421005728.1994268-1-nao.horiguchi@xxxxxxxxx/

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi

--- quote from cover letter of v1 ---

I wrote this patchset to materialize what I think is the current
allowable solution mentioned by the previous discussion [1].
I simply borrowed Tony's mutex patch and Aili's return code patch,
then I queued another one to find error virtual address in the best
effort manner. I know that this is not a perfect solution, but
should work for some typical case.
