In commit 8d7071af8907 ("mm: always expand the stack with the mmap write lock held") I tried to deal with the remaining odd page fault handling cases. The oddest one is ia64, which has stacks that grow both up and down. And because ia64 was _so_ odd, I asked people to verify the end result. But a close second oddity is parisc, which is the only one that has a main stack growing up (our "CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP" config option). But it looked obvious enough that I didn't worry about it. I should have worried a bit more. Not because it was particularly complex, but because I just used the wrong variable name. The previous vma isn't called "prev", it's called "prev_vma". Blush.

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. 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.
