From: Shaohua Li Date: Wed, 25 May 2011 00:11:20 +0000 (-0700) Subject: mmap: avoid merging cloned VMAs X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=965f55dea0e331152fa53941a51e4e16f9f06fae;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git mmap: avoid merging cloned VMAs Avoid merging a VMA with another VMA which is cloned from the parent process. The cloned VMA shares the anon_vma lock with the parent process's VMA. If we do the merge, more vmas (even the new range is only for current process) use the perent process's anon_vma lock. This introduces scalability issues. find_mergeable_anon_vma() already considers this case.
