[PATCH 6/6] drm/msm: EBUSY status handling in msm_gem_fault()

Rob Clark robdclark at gmail.com
Sun Oct 20 18:10:59 CEST 2013


Subsequent threads returning EBUSY from vm_insert_pfn() was not
handled correctly. As a result concurrent access from new threads
to mmapped data caused SIGBUS.

See e79e0fe3
