[PATCH v5 4/6] mm: migrate: support poisoned recover from migrate folio

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

 



The folio migration is widely used in kernel, memory compaction, memory
hotplug, soft offline page, numa balance, memory demote/promotion, etc,
but once access a poisoned source folio when migrating, the kerenl will
panic.

There is a mechanism in the kernel to recover from uncorrectable memory
errors, ARCH_HAS_COPY_MC, which is already used in other core-mm paths,
eg, CoW, khugepaged, coredump, ksm copy, see copy_mc_to_{user,kernel},
copy_mc_{user_}highpage callers.

In order to support poisoned folio copy recover from migrate folio, we
chose to make folio migration tolerant of memory failures and return
error for folio migration, because folio migration is no guarantee
of success, this could avoid the similar panic shown below.

  CPU: 1 PID: 88343 Comm: test_softofflin Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.6.0

  lr : copy_highpage+0x38/0x50

   vfs_write+0x238/0x2d8
   ksys_write+0x74/0x110

Note, folio copy is moved in the begin of the __migrate_folio(), which
could simplify the error handling since there is no turning back if
folio_migrate_mapping() return success, the downside is the folio copied
even though folio_migrate_mapping() return fail, an optimization is to
check whether source folio does not have extra refs before we do folio
copy.
