Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: fix locking order in mm_take_all_locks() Dmitry Vyukov has reported[1] possible deadlock (triggered by his syzkaller fuzzer): Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key); lock(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem); lock(&hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key); lock(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem); Both traces points to mm_take_all_locks() as a source of the problem. It doesn't take care about ordering or hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key (aka mapping->i_mmap_rwsem for hugetlb mapping) vs. i_mmap_rwsem. huge_pmd_share() does memory allocation under hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key and allocator can take i_mmap_rwsem if it hit reclaim. So we need to take i_mmap_rwsem from all hugetlb VMAs before taking i_mmap_rwsem from rest of VMAs. The patch also documents locking order for hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key.
