Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mm: don't prepare anon_vma if vma has VM_WIPEONFORK
Date: Sat,  8 Feb 2020 08:35:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1581150928-3214-2-git-send-email-lixinhai.lxh@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1581150928-3214-1-git-send-email-lixinhai.lxh@gmail.com>

In dup_mmap(), anon_vma_prepare() is called for vma has VM_WIPEONFORK,
and parameter 'tmp' (i.e., the new vma of child) has same ->vm_next and
->vm_prev as its parent vma. That allows anon_vma used by parent been
mistakenly shared by child (find_mergeable_anon_vma() will do this reuse
work).

Besides this issue, call anon_vma_prepare() should be avoided because we
don't copy page for this vma. Preparing anon_vma will be handled during
fault.
