Recently there was a fairly long thread about recoreable hardware page
faults, how they can deadlock, and what to do about that.
While the discussion is still fresh I figured good time to try and
document the conclusions a bit. This documentation section explains
what's the potential problem, and the remedies we've discussed,
roughly ordered from best to worst.
v2: Linus -> Linux typoe (Dave)
v3:
- Make it clear drivers only need to implement one option (Christian)
- Make it clearer that implicit sync is out the window with exclusive
fences (Christian)
- Add the fairly theoretical option of segementing the memory (either
statically or through dynamic checks at runtime for which piece of
memory is managed how) and explain why it's not a great idea (Felix)
