I found quite a number of bugs (sorry). Address masking problems,
forgot-to-increment-address problems, forgot-to-return problem,
and more :P
Hopefully the following gets us a little closer. The exact
design may not be the one we finally settle on, but hopefully
the high level ideas are sound.
--
Add a reverse mapping system for nommu for anonymous pages to be able
to find the vma in which they are allocated.
This allows a proper implementation of get_user_pages without breaking
callers: it is now possible to go from the page to the vma and then
increment or decrement its refcount.
Previously, get_user_pages would only refcount the struct page of anon
pages, however they are allocated via the slab, so an elevated refcount
on the page does not prevent the slab from being freed and reused.
Anonymous slab allocations of less than PAGE_SIZE are not supported,
because a single struct page may correspond to several vmas, and currently
free slabs which may be used for vmas in future.
