Subject: mm: softdirty: unmapped addresses between VMAs are clean
From: Peter Feiner <pfeiner@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 81d0fa623c5b8dbd5279d9713094b0f9b0a00fb4 upstream.
If a /proc/pid/pagemap read spans a [VMA, an unmapped region, then a
VM_SOFTDIRTY VMA], the virtual pages in the unmapped region are reported
as softdirty. Here's a program to demonstrate the bug:
int main() {
const uint64_t PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY = 1ul << 55;
uint64_t pme[3];
int fd = open("/proc/self/pagemap", O_RDONLY);;
char *m = mmap(NULL, 3 * getpagesize(), PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
munmap(m + getpagesize(), getpagesize());
pread(fd, pme, 24, (unsigned long) m / getpagesize() * 8);
assert(pme[0] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY); /* passes */
assert(!(pme[1] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY)); /* fails */
assert(pme[2] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY); /* passes */
return 0;
}
(Note that all pages in new VMAs are softdirty until cleared).
Tested:
Used the program given above. I'm going to include this code in
a selftest in the future.
