[ Upstream commit24526268f4] When calling mbind() with MPOL_MF_{MOVE|MOVEALL} | MPOL_MF_STRICT, kernel should attempt to migrate all existing pages, and return -EIO if there is misplaced or unmovable page. Then commit6f4576e368("mempolicy: apply page table walker on queue_pages_range()") messed up the return value and didn't break VMA scan early ianymore when MPOL_MF_STRICT alone. The return value problem was fixed by commita7f40cfe3b("mm: mempolicy: make mbind() return -EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified"), but it broke the VMA walk early if unmovable page is met, it may cause some pages are not migrated as expected. The code should conceptually do: if (MPOL_MF_MOVE|MOVEALL) scan all vmas try to migrate the existing pages return success else if (MPOL_MF_MOVE* | MPOL_MF_STRICT) scan all vmas try to migrate the existing pages return -EIO if unmovable or migration failed else /* MPOL_MF_STRICT alone */ break early if meets unmovable and don't call mbind_range() at all else /* none of those flags */ check the ranges in test_walk, EFAULT without mbind_range() if discontig. Fixed the behavior.

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.
