[PATCH 1/1] userfaultfd: fix move_pages_pte() splitting folio under RCU read lock

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

 



While testing the split PMD path with lockdep enabled I've got an
"Invalid wait context" error caused by split_huge_page_to_list() trying
to lock anon_vma->rwsem while inside RCU read section. The issues is due
to move_pages_pte() calling split_folio() under RCU read lock. Fix this
by unmapping the PTEs and exiting RCU read section before splitting the
folio and then retrying. The same retry pattern is used when locking the
folio or anon_vma in this function.
