Subject: [PATCH v3 5/7] proc/task_mmu: change proc_get_vma() to stop returning gate VMA at the end
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 16:47:35 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910234737.1340642-6-surenb@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910234737.1340642-1-surenb@google.com>

proc_get_vma() returning gate VMA at the end is desirable for the its
current m_start/m_next callers, as they need to report a gate VMA at the
end of the address space. This behavior is very specific to these callers
and makes proc_get_vma() hard to use for other purposes.

Move this usage-specific behavior into the callers themselves so that
proc_get_vma() returns either a valid VMA, an error or a NULL when no
more VMAs are available. This makes it more generic, simpler and usable
in the later patches.
