First, the size bits used for vm_fault needs to be shifted over. Otherwise, FAULT_FLAG_SIZE_PMD is clobbering FAULT_FLAG_INSTRUCTION. Second issue, after create_huge_pmd() is being called and is falling back to the pte fault handler, the FAULT_FLAG_SIZE_PMD flag remains and that causes the dax fault handler to go towards the pmd fault handler instead of the pte fault handler. Fixes are made for the pud and pmd fall through paths. Reported-by: Ross Zwisler <redacted> Signed-off-by: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com>
Yep, this seems to solve the issue for me. Thanks! Tested-by: Ross Zwisler <redacted> -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
