The generic tlb_end_vma does not call invalidate_range mmu notifier, and it resets resets the mmu_gather range, which means the notifier won't be called on part of the range in case of an unmap that spans multiple vmas. ARM64 seems to be the only arch I could see that has notifiers and uses the generic tlb_end_vma. I have not actually tested it. [ Catalin and Will point out that ARM64 currently only uses the notifiers for KVM, which doesn't use the ->invalidate_range() callback right now, so it's a bug, but one that happens to not affect them. So not necessary for stable. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
