Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH RESEND 00/28] per-VMA locks proposal
Date: Mon, 5 Sep 2022 14:32:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YxXsQKoQ0URIRuKi@dhcp22.suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220901173516.702122-1-surenb@google.com>

Unless I am missing something, this is not based on the Maple tree
rewrite, right? Does the change in the data structure makes any
difference to the approach? I remember discussions at LSFMM where it has
been pointed out that some issues with the vma tree are considerably
simpler to handle with the maple tree.

I think it would be really helpful to spell out those issues in a greater
detail. Not everybody is aware of those vma related subtleties.

Thanks for working on this Suren!
