Subject: numa: fix /proc/<pid>/numa_maps for THP
From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 28093f9f34cedeaea0f481c58446d9dac6dd620f upstream.
In gather_pte_stats() a THP pmd is cast into a pte, which is wrong
because the layouts may differ depending on the architecture. On s390
this will lead to inaccurate numa_maps accounting in /proc because of
misguided pte_present() and pte_dirty() checks on the fake pte.
On other architectures pte_present() and pte_dirty() may work by chance,
but there may be an issue with direct-access (dax) mappings w/o
underlying struct pages when HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL is set and THP is
available. In vm_normal_page() the fake pte will be checked with
pte_special() and because there is no "special" bit in a pmd, this will
always return false and the VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP checking will be
skipped. On dax mappings w/o struct pages, an invalid struct page
pointer would then be returned that can crash the kernel.
This patch fixes the numa_maps THP handling by introducing new "_pmd"
variants of the can_gather_numa_stats() and vm_normal_page() functions.
