Frequently Asked Questions

1

What conditions are needed to trigger the persistent failure?

A successful OP_UNMAP_SPARSE must be followed by a later operation in the same job that fails. During unwind, the sparse-unmapped region can remain marked dirty without teardown or completion signalling.

2

What is the operational impact after the failure occurs?

Later binds over the affected range can fail permanently with -ENOENT or -EINVAL due to dirty-region checks. They can also block indefinitely in wait_for_completion() in bind_validate_region(), and the condition persists for the lifetime of the uvmm.

3

Is restarting the affected uvmm necessary to recover?

The description states that the broken region state persists for the lifetime of the uvmm. No other recovery method is provided in the available data.
