I found a fairly large hole in my unsharing logic. Pte page COW behavior breaks down when new objects are mapped. This patch makes sure there aren't any COW pte pages in the range of a new mapping at mmap time. This should fix the KDE problem. It fixed it on the test machine I've been using.
Fixed it for me too. Congratulations. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org. For more info on Linux MM, see: http://www.linux-mm.org/
