[rds-devel] [External] : [PATCH net] rds: mark snapshot pages dirty in rds_info_getsockopt()

[Breno Leitao]

rds_info_getsockopt() pins the destination user pages with FOLL_WRITE and
the RDS_INFO_* producers memcpy the snapshot into them through
kmap_atomic(). Because that copy goes through the kernel direct map, the
dirty bit on the user PTE is never set, so unpin_user_pages() releases the
pages without marking them dirty. A file-backed destination page can then
be reclaimed without writeback, silently discarding the copied data.

Use unpin_user_pages_dirty_lock() with make_dirty=true so the modified
pages are marked dirty before they are unpinned.
