[PATCH stable 4.14,4.19 1/1] mm: Fix page counter mismatch in shmem_mfill_atomic_pte

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

 



From: Ma Wupeng <mawupeng1@xxxxxxxxxx>

shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() wrongly called mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() in "success"
path, it should mem_cgroup_uncharge() to dec memory counter instead.
mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() should only be used if this transaction is
unsuccessful and mem_cgroup_uncharge() is used to do this if this transaction
succeed.

This will lead to page->memcg not null and will uncharge one more in put_page().
The page counter will underflow to maximum value and trigger oom to kill all
process include sshd and leave system unaccessible.

page->memcg is set in the following path:
mem_cgroup_commit_charge
	commit_charge
		page->mem_cgroup = memcg;

extra uncharge will be done in the following path:
put_page
	__put_page
		__put_single_page
			mem_cgroup_uncharge
				if (!page->mem_cgroup) <-- should return here
					return
				uncharge_page
				uncharge_batch

To fix this, call mem_cgroup_commit_charge() at the end of this transaction to
make sure this transaction is really finished.

Fixes: 4c27fe4c4c84 ("userfaultfd: shmem: add shmem_mcopy_atomic_pte for userfaultfd support")
