There's a race between fork() and hugepage migration, as a result we try to "dereference" a swap entry as a normal pte, causing kernel panic. The cause of the problem is that copy_hugetlb_page_range() can't handle "swap entry" family (migration entry and hwpoisoned entry,) so let's fix it. ChangeLog v2: - stop applying is_cow_mapping() in copy_hugetlb_page_range() - use set_huge_pte_at() in hugepage code - fix stable version Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # v2.6.37+ --- mm/hugetlb.c | 70 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ 1 file changed, 42 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) diff --git v3.16-rc1.orig/mm/hugetlb.c v3.16-rc1/mm/hugetlb.c index 226910cb7c9b..a3f6349ab5b5 100644 --- v3.16-rc1.orig/mm/hugetlb.c +++ v3.16-rc1/mm/hugetlb.c @@ -2520,6 +2520,31 @@ static void set_huge_ptep_writable(struct vm_area_struct *vma, update_mmu_cache(vma, address, ptep); } +static int is_hugetlb_entry_migration(pte_t pte) +{ + swp_entry_t swp; + + if (huge_pte_none(pte) || pte_present(pte)) + return 0; + swp = pte_to_swp_entry(pte); + if (non_swap_entry(swp) && is_migration_entry(swp)) + return 1; + else + return 0; +} + +static int is_hugetlb_entry_hwpoisoned(pte_t pte) +{ + swp_entry_t swp; + + if (huge_pte_none(pte) || pte_present(pte)) + return 0; + swp = pte_to_swp_entry(pte); + if (non_swap_entry(swp) && is_hwpoison_entry(swp)) + return 1; + else + return 0; +} int copy_hugetlb_page_range(struct mm_struct *dst, struct mm_struct *src, struct vm_area_struct *vma) @@ -2559,10 +2584,25 @@ int copy_hugetlb_page_range(struct mm_struct *dst, struct mm_struct *src, dst_ptl = huge_pte_lock(h, dst, dst_pte); src_ptl = huge_pte_lockptr(h, src, src_pte); spin_lock_nested(src_ptl, SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING); - if (!huge_pte_none(huge_ptep_get(src_pte))) { + entry = huge_ptep_get(src_pte); + if (huge_pte_none(entry)) { /* skip none entry */ + ; + } else if (unlikely(is_hugetlb_entry_migration(entry) || + is_hugetlb_entry_hwpoisoned(entry))) { + swp_entry_t swp_entry = pte_to_swp_entry(entry); + if (is_write_migration_entry(swp_entry) && cow) { + /* + * COW mappings require pages in both + * parent and child to be set to read. + */ + make_migration_entry_read(&swp_entry); + entry = swp_entry_to_pte(swp_entry); + set_huge_pte_at(src, addr, src_pte, entry); + } + set_huge_pte_at(dst, addr, dst_pte, entry); + } else { if (cow) huge_ptep_set_wrprotect(src, addr, src_pte); - entry = huge_ptep_get(src_pte); ptepage = pte_page(entry); get_page(ptepage); page_dup_rmap(ptepage); @@ -2578,32 +2618,6 @@ int copy_hugetlb_page_range(struct mm_struct *dst, struct mm_struct *src, return ret; } -static int is_hugetlb_entry_migration(pte_t pte) -{ - swp_entry_t swp; - - if (huge_pte_none(pte) || pte_present(pte)) - return 0; - swp = pte_to_swp_entry(pte); - if (non_swap_entry(swp) && is_migration_entry(swp)) - return 1; - else - return 0; -} - -static int is_hugetlb_entry_hwpoisoned(pte_t pte) -{ - swp_entry_t swp; - - if (huge_pte_none(pte) || pte_present(pte)) - return 0; - swp = pte_to_swp_entry(pte); - if (non_swap_entry(swp) && is_hwpoison_entry(swp)) - return 1; - else - return 0; -} - void __unmap_hugepage_range(struct mmu_gather *tlb, struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long start, unsigned long end, struct page *ref_page) -- 1.9.3 -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
