Amit Pundir and Youling in parallel reported crashes with recent mainline kernels running Android: F DEBUG : *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** F DEBUG : Build fingerprint: 'Android/db410c32_only/db410c32_only:Q/OC-MR1/102:userdebug/test-key F DEBUG : Revision: '0' F DEBUG : ABI: 'arm' F DEBUG : pid: 2261, tid: 2261, name: zygote >>> zygote <<< F DEBUG : signal 7 (SIGBUS), code 2 (BUS_ADRERR), fault addr 0xec00008 ... <snip> ... F DEBUG : backtrace: F DEBUG : #00 pc 00001c04 /system/lib/libc.so (memset+48) F DEBUG : #01 pc 0010c513 /system/lib/libart.so (create_mspace_with_base+82) F DEBUG : #02 pc 0015c601 /system/lib/libart.so (art::gc::space::DlMallocSpace::CreateMspace(void*, unsigned int, unsigned int)+40) F DEBUG : #03 pc 0015c3ed /system/lib/libart.so (art::gc::space::DlMallocSpace::CreateFromMemMap(art::MemMap*, std::__1::basic_string<char, std::__ 1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char>> const&, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, bool)+36) ... This was bisected back to commit bfd40eaff5ab ("mm: fix vma_is_anonymous() false-positives"). create_mspace_with_base() in the trace above, utilizes ashmem, and with ashmem, for shared mappings we use shmem_zero_setup(), which sets the vma->vm_ops to &shmem_vm_ops. But for private ashmem mappings nothing sets the vma->vm_ops. Looking at the problematic patch, it seems to add a requirement that one call vma_set_anonymous() on a vma, otherwise the dummy_vm_ops will be used. Using the dummy_vm_ops seem to triggger SIGBUS when traversing unmapped pages. Thus, this patch adds a call to vma_set_anonymous() for ashmem private mappings and seems to avoid the reported problem.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
