mm/page_table_check: fix crash on ZONE_DEVICE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Peter Xu <peterx@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8bb592c2eca8fd2bc06db7d80b38da18da4a2f43 upstream.

Not all pages may apply to pgtable check.  One example is ZONE_DEVICE
pages: they map PFNs directly, and they don't allocate page_ext at all
even if there's struct page around.  One may reference
devm_memremap_pages().

When both ZONE_DEVICE and page-table-check enabled, then try to map some
dax memories, one can trigger kernel bug constantly now when the kernel
was trying to inject some pfn maps on the dax device:

 kernel BUG at mm/page_table_check.c:55!

While it's pretty legal to use set_pxx_at() for ZONE_DEVICE pages for page
fault resolutions, skip all the checks if page_ext doesn't even exist in
pgtable checker, which applies to ZONE_DEVICE but maybe more.
