Subject: mm: fix corruption of hibernation caused by reusing swap during image saving
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Since 2.6.31, swap_map[]'s refcounting was changed to show that a used
swap entry is just for swap-cache, can be reused. Then, while scanning
free entry in swap_map[], a swap entry may be able to be reclaimed and
reused. It was caused by commit c9e444103b5e7a5 ("mm: reuse unused swap
entry if necessary").
But this caused deta corruption at resume. The scenario is
- Assume a clean-swap cache, but mapped.
- at hibernation_snapshot[], clean-swap-cache is saved as
clean-swap-cache and swap_map[] is marked as SWAP_HAS_CACHE.
- then, save_image() is called. And reuse SWAP_HAS_CACHE entry to save
image, and break the contents.
After resume:
- the memory reclaim runs and finds clean-not-referenced-swap-cache and
discards it because it's marked as clean. But here, the contents on
disk and swap-cache is inconsistent.
Hance memory is corrupted.
This patch avoids the bug by not reclaiming swap-entry during hibernation.
This is a quick fix for backporting.
