This patch prevents a user mapping an illegal vma range that is larger
than a dax device physical resource.
When qemu maps the dax device for virtual nvdimm's backend device, the
v-nvdimm label area is defined at the end of mapped range. By using an
illegal size that exceeds the range of the device dax, it will trigger a
fault with qemu.

So, it turns out this patch did not get merged for 4.20. I fumbled it
when returning from vacation. However, I'm not sure it is needed. As
long as attempts to access the out-of-range capacity results in SIGBUS
then the implementation is correct. This is similar to the case where
a file is truncated after the vma is established. That size is
validated at fault time.
Could you be clearer about why this is a problem? The fault sounds
like the correct result.

The problem is that we didn't get the fault at we initial the mapping
until attempt to access it, then qemu will failed unexpect without any
output, I think is is better to mention user that we are starting at a
illegal size, but not faulting at an uncertained time.

That can always happen with mmap'd files. There is no guarantee that a
file range an application successfully mmap'd can be faulted in
without triggering a SIGBUS later. So this change would make
device-dax semantics stricter than regular file semantics. For example
the following program prints "map: pass" and then terminates with
SIGBUS. The "test_data" file is a zero sized file.
int main(void)
{
int fd = open("test_data", O_RDWR);
void *addr;
if (fd < 0)
return -1;
addr = mmap(NULL, 1 << 20, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
printf("map: %s\n", addr == MAP_FAILED ? "fail" : "pass");
*(char *) addr = 0;
return 0;
}
