[PATCH 2/3] migration: Fix page corruption during hugepage migration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If migrate_huge_page by memory-failure fails , it calls put_page in itself
to decrease page reference and caller of migrate_huge_page also calls
putback_lru_pages. It can do double free of page so it can make page
corruption on page holder.

In addtion, clean of pages on caller is consistent behavior with
migrate_pages by cf608ac19c95804dc2df43b1f4f9e0.
