Subject: [PATCH 4/4 v2] mm: use access_remote_vm() in get_cmdline()
Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2018 08:25:51 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1519691151-101999-5-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1519691151-101999-1-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com>
get_cmdline() is using access_process_vm() which increases mm reference
count, but the mm reference count has been increased before calling
access_process_vm() and it is kept across get_cmdline(). It sounds
unnecessary to get mm reference count increased twice, so replace
access_process_vm() to access_remote_vm() which requires caller increase
mm reference count.
