[PATCH] filemap: replace pte_offset_map() with pte_offset_map_nolock()

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

 



From: ZhangPeng <zhangpeng362@xxxxxxxxxx>

The vmf->ptl in filemap_fault_recheck_pte_none() is still set from
handle_pte_fault(). But at the same time, we did a pte_unmap(vmf->pte).
After a pte_unmap(vmf->pte) unmap and rcu_read_unlock(), the page table
may be racily changed and vmf->ptl maybe fails to protect the actual
page table.
Fix this by replacing pte_offset_map() with pte_offset_map_nolock().

Fixes: 58f327f2ce80 ("filemap: avoid unnecessary major faults in filemap_fault()")
