The quilt patch titled Subject: mm: fix mmap_assert_locked() in follow_pte() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-fix-mmap_assert_locked-in-follow_pte.patch This patch was dropped because it had testing failures ------------------------------------------------------ From: Pei Li <peili.dev@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: fix mmap_assert_locked() in follow_pte() Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2024 22:13:17 -0700 Syzbot reported the following warning in follow_pte(): WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 5192 at include/linux/rwsem.h:195 rwsem_assert_held include/linux/rwsem.h:195 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 5192 at include/linux/rwsem.h:195 mmap_assert_locked include/linux/mmap_lock.h:65 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 5192 at include/linux/rwsem.h:195 follow_pte+0x414/0x4c0 mm/memory.c:5980 This is because we are assuming that mm->mmap_lock should be held when entering follow_pte(). This is added in commit c5541ba378e3 (mm: follow_pte() improvements). However, in the following call stack, we are not acquring the lock: follow_phys arch/x86/mm/pat/memtype.c:957 [inline] get_pat_info+0xf2/0x510 arch/x86/mm/pat/memtype.c:991 untrack_pfn+0xf7/0x4d0 arch/x86/mm/pat/memtype.c:1104 unmap_single_vma+0x1bd/0x2b0 mm/memory.c:1819 zap_page_range_single+0x326/0x560 mm/memory.c:1920 In zap_page_range_single(), we passed mm_wr_locked as false, as we do not expect write lock to be held. In the special case where vma->vm_flags is set as VM_PFNMAP, we are hitting untrack_pfn() which eventually calls into follow_phys. This patch fixes this warning by acquiring read lock before entering untrack_pfn() while write lock is not held. syzbot has tested the proposed patch and the reproducer did not trigger any issue.
