    mm: softdirty: addresses before VMAs in PTE holes aren't softdirty · 87e6d49a
    Peter Feiner authored
    In PTE holes that contain VM_SOFTDIRTY VMAs, unmapped addresses before
    VM_SOFTDIRTY VMAs are reported as softdirty by /proc/pid/pagemap.  This
    bug was introduced in commit 68b5a652
    
     ("mm: softdirty: respect
    VM_SOFTDIRTY in PTE holes").  That commit made /proc/pid/pagemap look at
    VM_SOFTDIRTY in PTE holes but neglected to observe the start of VMAs
    returned by find_vma.
    
    Tested:
      Wrote a selftest that creates a PMD-sized VMA then unmaps the first
      page and asserts that the page is not softdirty. I'm going to send the
      pagemap selftest in a later commit.
