Shouldn't this go into mm/ instead? It certainly doesn't seem like a library.
+static int dmirror_bounce_copy_from(struct dmirror_bounce *bounce,
unsigned long addr)
+{
- unsigned long end = addr + bounce->size;
- char __user *uptr = (void __user *)addr;
- void *ptr = bounce->ptr;
- for (; addr < end; addr += PAGE_SIZE, ptr += PAGE_SIZE,
uptr += PAGE_SIZE) {
int ret;
ret = copy_from_user(ptr, uptr, PAGE_SIZE);
if (ret)
return ret;
- }
- return 0;
+}
Why does this iterate in page sized chunks? I don't remember a page size limit on copy_{from,to}_user.
+static int dmirror_invalidate_range_start(struct mmu_notifier *mn,
const struct mmu_notifier_range *update)

mutex_lock(&dmirror->mutex);

return -EAGAIN;

Can we adopts this to Jasons new interval tree invalidate?
+static int dmirror_fops_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp) +{
- struct cdev *cdev = inode->i_cdev;
- struct dmirror_device *mdevice;
- struct dmirror *dmirror;
- /* No exclusive opens. */
- if (filp->f_flags & O_EXCL)
return -EINVAL;
Device files usually just ignore O_EXCL, I don't see why this one would be any different.
- mdevice = container_of(cdev, struct dmirror_device, cdevice);
- dmirror = dmirror_new(mdevice);
- if (!dmirror)
return -ENOMEM;
- /* Only the first open registers the address space. */
- mutex_lock(&mdevice->devmem_lock);
- if (filp->private_data)
goto err_busy;
- filp->private_data = dmirror;
- mutex_unlock(&mdevice->devmem_lock);
->open is only called for the first open of a given file structure..
+static int dmirror_fops_release(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp) +{
- struct dmirror *dmirror = filp->private_data;
- if (!dmirror)
return 0;
This can't happen if your ->open never returns 0 without setting the private data.
- filp->private_data = NULL;
The file is feed afterwards, no need to clear the private data.
