Please look at the following code snippet: ... pud = pud_offset(p4d, addr); if (sz != PUD_SIZE && pud_none(*pud)) return NULL; /* hugepage or swap? */ if (pud_huge(*pud) || !pud_present(*pud)) return (pte_t *)pud; pmd = pmd_offset(pud, addr); if (sz != PMD_SIZE && pmd_none(*pmd)) return NULL; /* hugepage or swap? */ if (pmd_huge(*pmd) || !pmd_present(*pmd)) return (pte_t *)pmd; ... The following sequence would trigger this bug: 1. CPU0: sz = PUD_SIZE and *pud = 0 , continue 1. CPU0: "pud_huge(*pud)" is false 2. CPU1: calling hugetlb_no_page and set *pud to xxxx8e7(PRESENT) 3. CPU0: "!pud_present(*pud)" is false, continue 4. CPU0: pmd = pmd_offset(pud, addr) and maybe return a wrong pmdp However, we want CPU0 to return NULL or pudp in this case. We must make sure there is exactly one dereference of pud and pmd.
