[PATCH 2/2] mm/zsmalloc.c: Fix race condition in zs_destroy_pool

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

 



In zs_destroy_pool() we call flush_work(&pool->free_work). However, we
have no guarantee that migration isn't happening in the background
at that time.

Since migration can't directly free pages, it relies on free_work
being scheduled to free the pages.  But there's nothing preventing an
in-progress migrate from queuing the work *after*
zs_unregister_migration() has called flush_work().  Which would mean
pages still pointing at the inode when we free it.

Since we know at destroy time all objects should be free, no new
migrations can come in (since zs_page_isolate() fails for fully-free
zspages).  This means it is sufficient to track a "# isolated zspages"
count by class, and have the destroy logic ensure all such pages have
drained before proceeding.  Keeping that state under the class
spinlock keeps the logic straightforward.
