[PATCH v3 1/2] hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization

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

 



While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts,
it was discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become
'invalid' and point to another task's page table.  Consider the
following:

A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep.  Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.

Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file.  As part of truncation,
it unmaps everyone who has the file mapped.  If the range being
truncated is covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called.
For all but the last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will
clear the pud pointing to the pmd.  If the task in the middle of the
page fault is not the last user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc
now points to another task's page table or worse.  This leads to bad
things such as incorrect page map/reference counts or invalid memory
references.

To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
  huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
  huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling.  In addition, callers
  of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with
  the ptep.
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called.
