Presently when a user-space process issues CXL_IOCTL_START_WORK ioctl we store the pid of the current task_struct and use it to get pointer to the mm_struct of the process, while processing page or segment faults from the capi card. However this causes issues when the thread that had originally issued the start-work ioctl exits in which case the stored pid is no more valid and the cxl driver is unable to handle faults as the mm_struct corresponding to process is no more accessible. This patch fixes this issue by using the mm_struct of the next alive task in the thread group. This is done by iterating over all the tasks in the thread group starting from thread group leader and calling get_task_mm on each one of them. When a valid mm_struct is obtained the pid of the associated task is stored in the context replacing the exiting one for handling future faults. The patch introduces a new function named get_mem_context that checks if the current task pointed to by ctx->pid is dead? If yes it performs the steps described above. Also a new variable cxl_context.glpid is introduced which stores the pid of the thread group leader associated with the context owning task. Reported-by: Matthew R.
