Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] mm: Allow detection of wrong arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() context
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2025 18:48:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <18bf936f63e0d1e53d8291a3bc2ee2c577876d9c.1744129955.git.agordeev@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1744129955.git.agordeev@linux.ibm.com>
The lazy MMU batching may be only be entered and left under the
protection of the page table locks for all page tables which may
be modified. Yet, there were cases arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode()
was called without the locks taken, e.g. commit b9ef323ea168
("powerpc/64s: Disable preemption in hash lazy mmu mode").
Make default arch_enter|leave|flush_lazy_mmu_mode() callbacks
complain at least in case the preemption is enabled to detect
wrong contexts.
Most platforms do not implement the callbacks, so to aovid a
performance impact allow the complaint when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
option is enabled only.
