[PATCH] staging: binder: add vm_fault handler

From: Vinayak Menon
Date: Mon Jun 02 2014 - 08:48:49 EST


An issue was observed when a userspace task exits.
The page which hits error here is the zero page.
In binder mmap, the whole of vma is not mapped.
On a task crash, when debuggerd reads the binder regions,
the unmapped areas fall to do_anonymous_page in handle_pte_fault,
due to the absence of a vm_fault handler. This results in
zero page being mapped. Later in zap_pte_range, vm_normal_page
returns zero page in the case of VM_MIXEDMAP and it results in the
error.

Add a vm_fault handler which returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, and prevents the
wrong fallback to do_anonymous_page.
