5.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxx>
commit 5ae2efb1dea9f537453e841714e3ee2757595aec upstream.
While debugging something, I added a dump_page() into do_swap_page(),
and I got the splat from below. The issue happens when dereferencing
mapping->host in __dump_page():
...
else if (mapping) {
pr_warn("%ps ", mapping->a_ops);
if (mapping->host->i_dentry.first) {
struct dentry *dentry;
dentry = container_of(mapping->host->i_dentry.first, struct dentry, d_u.d_alias);
pr_warn("name:\"%pd\" ", dentry);
}
}
...
Swap address space does not contain an inode information, and so
mapping->host equals NULL.
Although the dump_page() call was added artificially into
do_swap_page(), I am not sure if we can hit this from any other path, so
it looks worth fixing it. We can easily do that by checking
mapping->host first.
