If hmm_range_fault() is called with the HMM_PFN_REQ_FAULT flag and a device private PTE is found, the hmm_range::dev_private_owner page is used to determine if the device private page should not be faulted in. However, if the device private page is not owned by the caller, hmm_range_fault() returns an error instead of calling migrate_to_ram() to fault in the page. For example, if a page is migrated to GPU private memory and a RDMA fault capable NIC tries to read the migrated page, without this patch it will get an error. With this patch, the page will be migrated back to system memory and the NIC will be able to read the data.

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.
