Hi Sasha, > I can confirm that with this patch the lockdep issue is gone. However, the NULL deref in > walk_pte_range() and the BUG at mm/hugemem.c:3580 still appear. I spotted the cause of this problem. Could you try testing if this patch fixes it? Thanks, Naoya --- Page table walker doesn't check non-present hugetlb entry in common path, so hugetlb_entry() callbacks must check it. The reason for this behavior is that some callers want to handle it in its own way. However, some callers don't check it now, which causes unpredictable result, for example when we have a race between migrating hugepage and reading /proc/pid/numa_maps. This patch fixes it by adding pte_present checks on buggy callbacks. This bug exists for long and got visible by introducing hugepage migration.
