Because kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is called from the page fault path without any of the slots_lock, filemap lock or mmu_lock taken, it is possible for it to race with kvm_gmem_unbind(). This is not a problem, as any PTE that is installed temporarily will be zapped before the guest has the occasion to run. However, it is not possible to have a complete unbind+bind racing with the page fault, because deleting the memslot will call synchronize_srcu_expedited() and wait for the page fault to be resolved. Thus, we can still warn if the file is there and is not the one we expect. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
