Subject: [PATCH] mm/mempolicy: fix lock contention on mems_allowed
Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2022 18:49:27 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220809104927.44366-1-wuyun.abel@bytedance.com> (raw)
The mems_allowed field can be modified by other tasks, so it
isn't safe to access it with alloc_lock unlocked even in the
current process context.
Fixes: 78b132e9bae9 ("mm/mempolicy: remove or narrow the lock on current")
Signed-off-by: Abel Wu <wuyun.abel@bytedance.com>
