If people agree this is a bug, I'll send out a fix. OK I'm deep in the rabbit hole now; Could anyone clarify the specs for huge_pte_clear() and huge_ptep_get_and_clear()? Specifically, I believe: - huge_pte_clear() can only be called for not-present huge_ptes, because the only way to set a huge_pte is via set_huge_pte_at() and that will always execute the page_table_check_*_set() functions for present huge_ptes. So clearing a present huge_pte using huge_pte_clear(), which does not call page_table_check_*_clear(), would cause counter imbalance. It looks like existing generic-code callers of huge_pte_clear() only do it for non-present huge_ptes. - huge_ptep_get_and_clear() can be used to get-and-clear both present and non-present huge_ptes? There is a single call site in generic-code where this could be called for a non-present huge_pte: move_huge_pte() (and it was there prior to my change). BUT, it looks like the arm64 implementation of huge_ptep_get_and_clear() is not safe to call if the pte being cleared is non-present: pte_t huge_ptep_get_and_clear(struct mm_struct *mm, unsigned long addr, pte_t *ptep) { int ncontig; size_t pgsize; pte_t orig_pte = __ptep_get(ptep); if (!pte_cont(orig_pte)) return __ptep_get_and_clear(mm, addr, ptep); ncontig = find_num_contig(mm, addr, ptep, &pgsize); return get_clear_contig(mm, addr, ptep, pgsize, ncontig); } pte_cont() assumes the pte is present, otherwise it's sampling a random bit that doesn't have the meaning it thinks it has. It is currently relying on that to determine the size of the huge_pte. So either arm64 has a bug or move_huge_pte() has a bug. If huge_ptep_get_and_clear() needs to work for non-present huge_ptes, we will need to pass the huge_pte size into this function. I don't think there is another way to resolve this.
