Since ODP had a single struct mmu_notifier located in the ucontext it could only handle a single MM at a time, and this prevented it from using the new owning_mm system. With the prior rework it is now simple to let ODP track multiple MMs per ucontext, finish the job so that the per_mm is allocated on a mm by mm basis, and freed when the last umem is dropped from the ucontext. As a side effect the new saner locking removes the lockdep splat about nesting the umem_rwsem between mmu_notifier_unregister and ib_umem_odp_release. It also makes ODP work with multiple processes, across, fork, etc. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>
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.
