Subject: mm, swap: avoid BUG_ON in relocate_cluster()
Date: Sun, 23 Feb 2025 00:08:47 +0800
If allocation is racy with swapoff, we may call free_cluster for cluster
already in free list and trigger BUG_ON() as following:
Allocation Swapoff
cluster_alloc_swap_entry
...
/* may get a free cluster with offset */
offset = xxx;
if (offset)
ci = lock_cluster(si, offset);
...
del_from_avail_list(p, true);
si->flags &= ~SWP_WRITEOK;
alloc_swap_scan_cluster(si, ci, ...)
...
/* failed to alloc entry from free entry */
if (!cluster_alloc_range(...))
break;
...
/* add back a free cluster */
relocate_cluster(si, ci);
if (!ci->count)
free_cluster(si, ci);
VM_BUG_ON(ci->flags == CLUSTER_FLAG_FREE);
To prevent the BUG_ON(), call free_cluster() for free cluster to move the
cluster to tail of list.
Check cluster is not free before calling free_cluster() in
relocate_cluster() to avoid BUG_ON().
