Hi,
While fuzzing 5.15.y kernel with Syzkaller, we noticed a INFO: task hung
bug in fb_deferred_io_work()
This is in 5.15.149 tag, and this is introduced by a set of commits:
2655757a3f10 fbdev: flush deferred IO before closing
15492bab7393 fbdev: Fix incorrect page mapping clearance at
fb_deferred_io_release()
87b9802ca824 fbdev: Fix invalid page access after closing deferred I/O
devices
9a95fc04261f fbdev: Rename pagelist to pagereflist for deferred I/O
186b89659c4c fbdev: Track deferred-I/O pages in pageref struct
e79b2b2aadef fbdev: defio: fix the pagelist corruption
0616b00a31d6 fbdev: Don't sort deferred-I/O pages by default
5d3aff76a316 fbdev/defio: Early-out if page is already enlisted
I then tried if it could be reproducible on upstream kernel as well, and
it did. below is the call trace with latest 6.9-rc4 based kernel. I have
enabled the LOCKDEP to get locking related information.
INFO: task kworker/0:3:1077 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

Syzkaller initially generated a long reproducer, Vegard simplified it to
the one below
C repro:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
int fd = open("/dev/fb0", O_RDWR, 0);
char *ptr = (char *) 0x20000000ul;
mmap(ptr, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_FIXED | MAP_SHARED, fd, 0xff000);
*ptr = 0;
mmap(ptr, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_FIXED | MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
*ptr = 0;
return 0;
}
This needs to be run as root to see the hang in 122 seconds.
238 static void fb_deferred_io_work(struct work_struct *work)
239 {
240 struct fb_info *info = container_of(work, struct fb_info,
deferred_work.work);
241 struct fb_deferred_io_pageref *pageref, *next;
242 struct fb_deferred_io *fbdefio = info->fbdefio;
243
244 /* here we mkclean the pages, then do all deferred IO */
245 mutex_lock(&fbdefio->lock);
246 list_for_each_entry(pageref, &fbdefio->pagereflist, list) {
247 struct page *cur = pageref->page;
248 lock_page(cur);
249 page_mkclean(cur);
250 unlock_page(cur);
251 }
It is stalling on lock_page() in fb_deferred_io_work()
I will be happy to try any patches and report back.
Thanks,
Harshit
