Subject: [PATCH 2/3] fs/proc/task_mmu: don't read young/dirty from a non-present PMD in smaps
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 03:38:30 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111113904.650722-3-usama.arif@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111113904.650722-1-usama.arif@linux.dev>
smaps_pmd_entry() passes pmd_young(*pmd) and pmd_dirty(*pmd) to
smaps_account() for every PMD, including migration and device-private
entries, where those bits hold part of the swap offset rather than
accessed/dirty state. smaps_pte_entry() only reads them when the entry
is present.
On x86_64 the offset is stored inverted across bits 9-58, which overlap
_PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY, so pmd_dirty() returns garbage: a clean 2MB
device-private mapping is accounted as 2048 kB dirty, and lazyfree
accounting is suppressed. pgtable_64.h also warns that the hardware can
set the accessed and dirty bits on non-present entries by mistake.
Only read the bits when the PMD is present.
Fixes: c94b6923fa0a ("/proc/PID/smaps: Add PMD migration entry parsing")
