> Subject: [RFC][PATCH 5/6] mm: Provide speculative fault infrastructure
>
> Provide infrastructure to do a speculative fault (not holding
> mmap_sem).
>
> The not holding of mmap_sem means we can race against VMA
> change/removal and page-table destruction. We use the SRCU VMA freeing
> to keep the VMA around. We use the VMA seqcount to detect change
> (including umapping / page-table deletion) and we use gup_fast() style
> page-table walking to deal with page-table races.
>
> Once we've obtained the page and are ready to update the PTE, we
> validate if the state we started the fault with is still valid, if
> not, we'll fail the fault with VM_FAULT_RETRY, otherwise we update the
> PTE and we're done.

I wonder if one char, "*", is missing.

btw, and more important, still correct for me to
address you Redhater, Sir?
