Hi,
(This bug report is summary from thread [1] with some additions)
User-space binaries on Power9 ppc64le (with 64k pages) on xfs
filesystem are sporadically hitting SIGBUS:
---------- 8< ----------
(gdb) r
Starting program: /mnt/testarea/ltp/testcases/bin/genasin

---------- >8 ----------
When this happens the binary continues to hit SIGBUS until page
is released, for example by: echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
The issue goes back to at least v4.19.
I can semi-reliably reproduce it with LTP is installed to /mnt/testarea/ltp by:
while [ True ]; do
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
rm -f /mnt/testarea/ltp/results/RUNTEST.log /mnt/testarea/ltp/output/RUNTEST.run.log
./runltp -p -d results -l RUNTEST.log -o RUNTEST.run.log -f math
grep FAIL /mnt/testarea/ltp/results/RUNTEST.log && exit 1
done
and some stress activity in other terminal (e.g. kernel build).
Sometimes in minutes, sometimes in hours. It is not reliable
enough to get meaningful bisect results.
My theory is that there's a race in iomap. There appear to be
interleaved calls to iomap_set_range_uptodate() for same page
with varying offset and length. Each call sees bitmap as _not_
entirely "uptodate" and hence doesn't call SetPageUptodate().
Even though each bit in bitmap ends up uptodate by the time
all calls finish.
For example, with following traces:
iomap_set_range_uptodate()
...
if (uptodate && !PageError(page))
SetPageUptodate(page);
+
+ if (mycheck(page)) {
+ trace_printk("page: %px, iop: %px, uptodate: %d, !PageError(page): %d, flags: %lx\n", page, iop, uptodate, !PageError(page), page->flags);
+ trace_printk("first: %u, last: %u, off: %u, len: %u, i: %u\n", first, last, off, len, i);
+ }
I get:

This page doesn't have Uptodate flag set, which leads to filemap_fault()
returning VM_FAULT_SIGBUS:
crash> p/x ((struct page *) 0xc00c00000fe26180)->flags
$1 = 0x3ffff800002032
crash> kmem -g 0x3ffff800002032
FLAGS: 3ffff800002032
PAGE-FLAG BIT VALUE
PG_error 1 0000002
PG_dirty 4 0000010
PG_lru 5 0000020
PG_private_2 13 0002000
PG_fscache 13 0002000
PG_savepinned 4 0000010
PG_double_map 13 0002000
But iomap_page->uptodate in page->private suggests all bits are uptodate:
crash> p/x ((struct page *) 0xc00c00000fe26180)->private
$2 = 0xc000003fc70a19c0
crash> p/x ((struct iomap_page *) 0xc000003fc70a19c0)->uptodate
$3 = {0xffff, 0x0}
It appears (after ~4 hours) that I can avoid the problem if I split
the loop so that bits are checked only after all updates are made.
Not sure if this correct approach, or just making it less reproducible:
diff --git a/fs/iomap/buffered-io.c b/fs/iomap/buffered-io.c
