Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] mm: Handle read faults under the VMA lock
Date: Fri,  6 Oct 2023 20:53:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231006195318.4087158-6-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231006195318.4087158-1-willy@infradead.org>

Most file-backed faults are already handled through ->map_pages(),
but if we need to do I/O we'll come this way.  Since filemap_fault()
is now safe to be called under the VMA lock, we can handle these faults
under the VMA lock now.
