Subject: [PATCH v11 2/7] mm/vmalloc: undo partial mappings inside the mapping functions
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 16:20:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260929082014.160587-3-hao.ge@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260929082014.160587-1-hao.ge@linux.dev>

__vmap_pages_range_noflush() and friends can install some PTEs before
failing and leave them mapped, and the kernel callers do not agree on
who cleans them up. For example, pcpu_map_pages() and
kmsan_ioremap_page_range() unmap the leftovers themselves, while
vm_module_tags_populate() and the __GFP_NOFAIL retry loop in
__vmalloc_area_node() relied on the mapping functions cleaning up and
did not call anything like vunmap_range() themselves. When the same
range is mapped again, the attempt hits the leftovers and fails, with
BUG() in vmap_pte_range() for huge mappings.

After discussing with Suren and Ulad, we decided the cleanup belongs
to __vmap_pages_range_noflush() and friends, so the callers no longer
need to unmap the partial mappings themselves. Each function now
undoes the PTEs it installed itself.

The rollback calls the low-level __vunmap_range_noflush(), it just
clears the PTEs of the range it is given, which is all a rollback
needs. It cannot use vunmap_range_noflush() because these mapping
functions also map the KMSAN shadow and origin, and for a metadata
range its hook would look up the metadata of the metadata, get 0
and BUG() on addr >= end. The failed mappings were never accessed,
no TLB flush needed.

Fixes: 9376130c390a ("mm/vmalloc: add support for __GFP_NOFAIL")
Fixes: 0f9b685626da ("alloc_tag: populate memory for module tags as needed")
