[PATCH v2] mm/khugepaged: check compound_order() in collapse_pte_mapped_thp()

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

 



By the time we lock a page in collapse_pte_mapped_thp(), the page
mapped by the address pushed onto the slot's .pte_mapped_thp[] array
might have changed arbitrarily since we last looked at it.  We
revalidate that the page is still the head of a compound page, but we
don't revalidate if the compound page is of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before
applying rmap and page table updates.

Since the kernel now supports large folios of arbitrary order, and since
replacing page's pte mappings by a pmd mapping only makes sense for
compound pages of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER, revalidate that the compound
order is indeed of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before proceeding.
