[PATCH 0/3] Replace current->mm by kvm->mm on powerpc/kvm

[PATCH 0/3] Replace current->mm by kvm->mm on powerpc/kvm

[Leonardo Bras]

By replacing, we would reduce the use of 'global' current on code,
relying more in the contents of kvm struct.

On code, I found that in kvm_create_vm() there is:
kvm->mm = current->mm;

And that on every kvm_*_ioctl we have tests like that:
if (kvm->mm != current->mm)
        return -EIO;

So this change would be safe.

I split the changes in 3 patches, so it would be easier to read
and reject separated parts. If decided that squashing is better,
I see no problem doing that.

Best regards,

[Leonardo Bras]

Given that in kvm_create_vm() there is:
kvm->mm = current->mm;

And that on every kvm_*_ioctl we have:
if (kvm->mm != current->mm)
	return -EIO;

I see no reason to keep using current->mm instead of kvm->mm.

By doing so, we would reduce the use of 'global' variables on code, relying
more in the contents of kvm struct.

The patch series looks fine.  It has missed the 5.4 merge window, and
it doesn't fix any bugs, so I will queue it up for the 5.5 merge
window, meaning that I will put it into my kvm-ppc-next branch when I
prepare it for the 5.5 merge window, probably in about a month from
now.

This remark also applies to your other patch "Reduce calls to get
current->mm by storing the value locally".

Thanks,
Paul.

This patch led to a crash on shutting down a VM, because of this hunk:

You are referencing kvm->mm after having done kvm_put_kvm a couple of
lines earlier, which means that *kvm can be freed at the point where
you use kvm->mm.  If you want to make this change you will need to
move the kvm_put_kvm call to after the last use of it.

I have dropped this patch for now.

Sorry Paul, 
I remember dealing with this before, but it looks like it was lost
during git context/branch switching. 

I will make sure that doesn't happen again.
A v2 will come soon, I will test it on travis.

[PATCH 0/3] Replace current->mm by kvm->mm on powerpc/kvm

[Leonardo Bras]

By replacing, we would reduce the use of 'global' current on code,
relying more in the contents of kvm struct.

On code, I found that in kvm_create_vm() there is:
kvm->mm = current->mm;

And that on every kvm_*_ioctl we have tests like that:
if (kvm->mm != current->mm)
        return -EIO;

So this change would be safe.

I split the changes in 3 patches, so it would be easier to read
and reject separated parts. If decided that squashing is better,
I see no problem doing that.
